Area Developer Testimonial

"After college I joined my families business for a number of years. Eventually, my wife and I decided to explore other business possibilities of our own. We did a great deal of research and decided to become an Area Developer for Cousins Subs. Within the first three years we were successful with the development of our first ten locations that we decided to sign up for ten more as well as expand our territory.

We recently signed for another ten locations bringing our total to thirty Cousins Subs shops within our territory. We hope to sign for another ten locations within the next few years."
