Why Choose Blimpie Express
Blimpie Express is designed specifically for convenience store owners looking to expand their offerings and increase revenue. Our model is tailored to fit seamlessly into existing c-store operations, providing a turnkey solution for adding a food service option to your business.
“The Blimpie Express model launched to help c-store business owners find an economical way to add revenue,” Jeff Wallace, Brand Leader of Blimpie. “Unlike other concepts, the Blimpie Express model is prefabricated, and is shipped to the franchise location in three separate units attached on site in a matter of a few days. The whole process is designed to be as easy as possible for both our franchise owners and their customers.”
Quick and Easy Setup
Our Blimpie Express model is the epitome of efficiency in the fast-food industry. Engineered with speed and convenience in mind, this innovative solution dramatically reduces the time traditionally associated with setting up a new restaurant location. With proper planning and coordination, you can transform from an empty space to a fully operational Blimpie Express in a matter of days, not the weeks or months typically required for conventional restaurant setups.
The key to this rapid deployment lies in our use of prefabricated units. These carefully designed and pre-assembled components are shipped directly to your chosen location, ready for swift installation. This approach not only accelerates the setup process, but also minimizes disruption to your existing business operations or surrounding establishments. Whether you’re expanding your franchise portfolio or launching your first location, our Express model ensures you can start serving customers and generating revenue with unprecedented speed and ease.
A Menu That Drives Traffic
Americans consume over 300 million sandwiches every day, and Blimpie has been satisfying this appetite since 1964. Our commitment to quality ingredients and fresh preparation has won us millions of loyal customers across the country.
“Blimpie is by far the best sandwich brand out there – the competition is not even close,” Wallace says. “We use the highest quality ingredients, and we just have the best tasting subs period. This is a brand with a strong 60+ year heritage, and we’ve never changed our commitment to quality. We provide great products and a great experience for our customers, and they keep us in their hearts.”
Today, having a strong online presence is crucial. That’s why we’ve integrated third-party delivery options and our own online ordering platform into the Blimpie Express model. This allows you to tap into the growing demand for convenient food options and expand your customer base beyond your physical location.
Support That Sets You Up for Growth
When you become a Blimpie Express franchise owner, you’re gaining a partner invested in your growth. Our support team, many of whom were former franchise owners themselves, provide guidance in every aspect of running your Blimpie Express:
- Product preparation and serving techniques
- Inventory management and cost control
- Leadership and team management skills
- Customer service excellence
- Local marketing strategies
“The support we provide to our franchise owners is outstanding,” Wallace says. “We meet with our franchise owners on a regular basis, both in-person and virtually. We want to help them reach their goals and continue to grow. When they succeed, we succeed – and with Blimpie, you’re never alone in business.”
