In 2011, Firehouse Subs became the first national chain to announce the systemwide rollout of the Coca-Cola Freestyle beverage dispenser. Additionally, by April, the company had nine new franchise agreements in place, set to add 429 restaurants to the chain's growing portfolio. The new agreements include development territories within Iowa, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Texas. "The signing of these agreements is a true testament to the strength of the Firehouse Subs brand and its growing popularity," said Don Fox, CEO of Firehouse Subs. We agree.
