Fresh Since 1965, Built for You
It started with a 17-year-old, a $1,000 loan, and one big idea: fresh food, made right in front of you, exactly how you want it. Nearly six decades later, that idea is still the whole point.

The $1,000 Idea
In 1965, 17-year-old Fred DeLuca borrowed $1,000 from family friend Dr. Peter Buck and opened a single sandwich shop in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The pitch was simple: fresh ingredients, made to order, nothing pre-made sitting under a heat lamp.
