Quiznos franchisees sue for lack of support in opening restaurants
Four Quiznos franchisees have sued the franchisor in United District Court in Akron, Ohio, alleging that they received inadequate support in locating and opening new locations.
All four plaintiffs signed franchise agreements for stores that remain unopened for more than the year permitted for opening a restaurant. According to the suit, as of Dec. 31, 2005, there were nearly 3,000 signed Quiznos franchise contracts that were at least a year old for stores that never opened.
