SANDWICH chain Subway will open its first drive-thru in Ireland on Friday at Boucher Road in Belfast in a £250,000 investment which will create 20 jobs.
The new concept, brought by franchisee owner Damian Havlin and his family, will provide tight-for-time customers with convenience by including the quickest way to purchase a sub in Ireland.
In addition to the drive-thru feature, the Boucher Road store will include the Fresh Forward concept created by FRCH Design Worldwide. The bespoke and sensory design incorporates a bright new colour palette along with the first digital menu boards for Subway.
Mr Havlin said: “We wanted to offer something different to the already loyal Subway customers and we’re delighted to be opening the first drive-thru store in Ireland.”
Stacey Brown, development manager for Subway Northern Ireland, said: “The Boucher Road area is a thriving destination for time restricted commuters, health-conscious families and forward-thinking millennials making it the ideal location for this drive-thru.
"Bringing both convenience and quality, the store represents our continued commitment to Northern Ireland and our continued innovation in food and service.”
In the last 20 years Subway has opened more than 100 stores in Northern Ireland, creating 1,500 jobs.
