'Aloha' Miami: The New Miami Subs Grill Inks Deal For 58 Restaurants To Open In Hawaii By First Area Developers For Subway Restaurants In Hawaii

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., April 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Plans for national and worldwide expansion are exploding at The New Miami Subs Grill, Florida's largest regional franchise chain.  In the midst of announcing the largest single deal of their history - 56 locations to open in the Gulf Coast countries of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, Oman, Qatar and Bahrain - along with new locations launching in Guyana and South America, The New Miami Subs Grill today announces that 58 restaurants will open in Hawaii. The deal was struck with Ocean Breeze Hawaii LLC, led by the first area developer to break the Subway franchise out of the continental United States and into Hawaii in 1987.

"With national and global expansion at the helm for The New Miami Subs Grill, we are intently focused on strengthening and expanding our brand both internationally and domestically. Bringing a taste of Miami to the aloha state of Hawaii is a natural next step for our current brand expansion efforts," explains CEO Richard Chwatt.  

Domestic growth efforts for the iconic franchise brand include three new restaurants launching in Miami - Miami Springs, Miami and South Beach - for the first time in over 20 years. A modernized new look and feel for the iconic restaurant chain will also debut in 2013-2014, by the artistic direction of legendary internationally known architect Kobi Karp, founder of Kobi Karp Architecture and Interior Design (KKAID).

Patrons can look forward to a fresh, new signature look for Miami Subs that will celebrate "the excitement and edginess of Miami's signature lifestyle" along with the brand's new high profile equity partner, International Music Sensation and entrepreneur Armando Christian Perez, aka Pitbull.

"We are tremendously excited to see veteran area developers, Ocean Breeze LLC, join The New Miami Subs Grill's area developer team. The group's extensive franchising and area developer experience, along with their team's unique perspective on the Hawaiian marketplace, will realize proper execution of our popular, Miami grown brand in Hawaii," explains Director of Franchise Development, Robert Haar. "With our launch in the Hawaiian market, we are now looking forward to continuing our expansion further west and are actively seeking qualified candidates in both Japan and California due to the strong synergy between these three areas."
