From Wikipedia:
"Jersey Mike's Subs is a submarine sandwich, or "sub", chain headquartered in Manasquan, New Jersey. The Jersey Mike's franchise has more than 600 stores across the United States.
At age 14, Peter Cancro of Point Pleasant, New Jersey took a job at Mike's, a neighborhood sandwich shop founded in 1956 and then on its third owner. When the shop went up for sale once again in 1975, Cancro's mother suggested he buy it. With help from a high school football coach who was also a banker, Cancro, then 17 and a high school senior, managed to pull together $125,000 in three days. Today, Cancro is the owner and CEO of the company.
Like the original Mike's store in 1956, each Jersey Mike's Subs serves submarine sandwiches made to order, slicing the meats and cheeses as needed.
Prospective store managers are sent to the location of the original store in Point Pleasant for part of a six- to eight-week training course.
At Jersey Mike's, Italian meats are emphasized, but American meats and cheeses are also provided."
