Publix: It’s Time to Open Standalone Sub Shops. The People Are Hungry.
The Issue
Dear Publix,
We, the people, have a dream. A dream that one day we won’t have to fake-shop for groceries just to get our hands on an Ultimate Sub. A dream where we don't have to wait 20 minutes in line because one person is ahead of us. A dream where sandwich-making has structure and synergy...
That dream is a Publix Sub Shop; a glorious, standalone brick and mortar temple of toasted bread, Boar’s Head meats, and salt/pepper/oil&vinegar. No distractions. No cart traffic. No long waits. Just a place where getting a Pub Sub, like shopping, is a pleasure.
Blimpie, Quiznos, Which Wich, Subway all crawled so Publix Sub Shop could SOAR! Pub Subs deserve a storefront of their own.
Imagine:
- A drive-thru for the Chicken Tender Sub.
- Online ordering actually ready at the time we selected.
- Getting Loyalty points for when I lie to myself that I'll get a Whole instead of a Half so it'll actually be two meals, but then actually ending up eating it all in one meal.
We're not asking for world peace. We’re asking for convenience and efficiency.
Publix, let the subs stand alone. Make history. Feed the people.
