For the second year in a row, a New Jersey- based sub shop has been named the #1 sandwich shop in the country.
At PrimoHoagies, based in Westville, quality and family traditions are central to its operations, according to a press release.
These values have formed the foundation of the company’s success and continue to be its top priority. The team takes immense pride in delivering high quality sandwiches, crafted with care and dedication to time-honored recipes passed down through generations, according to PrimoHoagies statement.
“If Italian specialty sandwiches are your jam, PrimoHoagies is definitely the place for you. Their menu has 10 sandwich categories to choose from, including Italian Classics (like their Sharp Italian), Philly Cheesesteaks (including a pizza steak), Schwartzies (think corned beef and roast beef), and even Meatless (like the Nonna’s veggies with eggplant and broccoli rabe),” USA Today wrote.
Owner, President and CEO of PrimoHoagies, Nicholas Papanier Jr., is thrilled to receive this honor for the second consecutive year. He expressed gratitude to his customers.
“It is an incredible honor to be awarded this prestigious recognition once again, and it would not have been possible without your unwavering support and loyalty. I want to personally thank each and every one of you for your continued patronage and for making us a part of your lives,” said Papanier Jr.
He went on to say that he is deeply humbled by this recognition from USA Today and he remains committed to upholding the values that define PrimoHoagies.
“Thank you for being a part of the PrimoHoagies family and helping us achieve this remarkable milestone. Here’s to many more years of delicious sandwiches and shared moments,” Papanier Jr., said.
