Sandwich Franchise Opportunity

Built by franchisees. Built for franchisees.

Capriotti’s is a sandwich franchisor founded in 1976 in Wilmington, Delaware, with 285 shops open or in development, most of them owned and operated by franchisees. Our CEO, Ashley Morris, and our President, Jason Smylie, both started as Capriotti’s franchisees and bought the company in 2008. That’s why we say Capriotti’s is built by franchisees, for franchisees.

Since 1976, we’ve built a name on fanatically delicious sandwiches made with high-quality ingredients that have inspired customers and franchisees alike. From our humble beginnings in Wilmington’s Little Italy neighborhood, Capriotti’s has grown into an award-winning, national favorite.

Join us in our mission: To share our passion, one sandwich at a time.

We’re looking for restaurant franchise partners who bring integrity and a drive for profitability to join our family of genuine, passionate business owners. We provide the tools and expert support to help you launch and grow your business while you champion Capriotti’s in your community and inspire customers with our obsessively delicious food.
