Jersey Mike’s Subs will officially open its doors in Monrovia next week, which will make forty four restaurants in California. Jersey Mike’s owner, Vana Mehrabian knows the importance of community relations and will celebrate his new ties with the area when he holds his grand opening on May 5.
To commemorate the event, the new restaurant, located at 444 West Huntington Drive, is hosting a 5-day fundraiser from Wed., May 5 through Sun., May 9, with proceeds supporting Monrovia High School and Arcadia High School. Anyone who has a fundraising coupon can get a free regular size sub with a minimum $1 donation.
Coupons are being distributed throughout the community and in local newspapers.
“One of our top priorities as small business owners is to support our community, and in particular the children,” said Mehrabian. “I wanted to support the local high schools where my store is located, because I want to give something back to the community that has already given so much to me.”
Reaching out to the community is a key component of Jersey Mike’s mission. All franchise owners find ways to support their neighbors and employees are encouraged to volunteer their time and talents as well.
“Every community deserves local businesses that are invested in their success,” said Peter Cancro, Jersey Mike’s founder and CEO. “Vana Mehrabian has shown that he cares about Monrovia and its families, and we congratulate him on his first store.”
“After visiting a Jersey Mike’s store in California and trying a sandwich, I was blown away, said Mehrabian. I loved the product, the people and the atmosphere. I knew it would be a great product to bring to Monrovia. The business model focuses on builidng relationships in the community, serving quality products, and offering excellent customer service.”
Store hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., Monday to Sunday. You can contact this store directly at (626) 359-1333.
