WESTVILLE, N.J., Oct. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- PrimoHoagies, the beloved hoagie chain recently named America's #1 sandwich shop, announced today the signing of 20 new franchise agreements. The deals confirmed plans for new development of locations across the eastern and midwestern parts of the U.S., including the brand's first-ever agreements signed in Massachusetts.

Two locations in Mine Hill, N.J.;
And one location in Jamison, Pa.

"PrimoHoagies is on a mission to redefine the sandwich experience across the United States," said Nicholas Papanier Jr., owner and CEO of PrimoHoagies. "As we venture into new markets and deepen our roots in existing ones, we're not just offering sandwiches; we're inviting passionate entrepreneurs to join us in this exciting journey.
