Subway's next CEO will have a lot of work to do

The Bottom Line: The fast-food sandwich chain has stabilized unit volumes and slowed closures. But the brand remains the toughest turnaround in the restaurant industry.

The sandwich giant closed more than 600 U.S. locations in 2024, according to the company’s franchise disclosure documents. It has fewer domestic restaurants than it’s had in 20 years.

Doug Fry stepped down as head of the sandwich chain’s North American operations while Greg Lyons was named chief marketing officer.

The fast food sandwich giant partnered with Doritos to grow its footlong snack platform. It's the latest marketing partnership involving the company's menu.

The sandwich giant goes all in on the sweet-heat movement, putting its own spin on the popular flavor.

The company restarted a $6.99 Any Footlong digital offer this week. But a franchisee group is urging operators to refuse the deal, even with company incentives, saying that it devalues the product.

The fast-food chain’s culinary team showcased ingredients featured on its sandwich menu in each of the chef-curated courses.

The chocolatey cookie launches Thursday, joining the sandwich chain’s lineup of footlong snacks and treats.

McDonald’s is kicking off its McValue menu with John Cena. Subway is launching a daily value meal of its own. And KFC is bringing back $5 bowls. Can they cure chains' traffic ills?
