MILFORD, Conn. -- From the beginning of July through the end of September, the Subway chain reached quite a few development milestones and opened 581 new locations around the world, which account for approximately 700,000 square feet of commercial retail space. With these latest openings, the chain's total store count is more than 31,800, including more than 9,000 restaurants in international markets, which is putting us closer and closer to overtaking the number of McDonald's restaurants operating across the globe.
Also, within those three months, the Milford, Conn.-based Subway chain crossed the 400 store mark in Mexico and opened its 300th restaurant in Brazil.
Domestically, the Subway chain reached the 1,100-store milestone in the state of New York, 500 locations in Washington and 400 each in Arizona and Colorado.
In the nontraditional development category, the Subway chain now has more than 7,200 locations in places such as airports, department stores, hospitals and park and recreational facilities. Recent openings include a store inside a Gold's Gym in Mumbai, India; the Royal Brisbane Woman's Hospital in Australia; the University of Pennsylvania campus in Philadelphia; the Michael-Ann Russell Jewish Community Center in North Miami, Florida, which provides a kosher menu; and the Tioga Downs Casino in Nichols, New York. And Subway now has a store at the Nurburgring race track in Germany.
The past few months have also resulted in a number of awards and accolades for the Subway brand. In Australia, Subway was named Retailer of the Year, in the restaurant category, by the Australian Retailers Association. Closer to home, Subway was ranked as the No. 1 favorite fast-food restaurant in Atlas Van Lines' annual King of the Road survey of professional long-haul moving van operators.
