As an avid fan of Subway—my local store knows me by name—I was thrilled to see news that the chain had teamed up with T. Marzetti Company to launch its most loved sauces in store. Just in time for National Sauce Month, the four flavors will be debuting in retail locations nationwide.
"Subway fans love our signature sauces. Three of the new retail sauces—Sweet Onion Teriyaki, Roasted Garlic Aioli and Baja Chipotle—are inspired by guests' in-restaurant favorites, and we've added an exclusive flavor to this collection with a Creamy Italian MVP, a new twist on Subway's MVP Parmesan Vinaigrette®," said Paul Fabre, Senior Vice President, Culinary and Innovation at Subway. "This partnership takes our sauces to another level and enables our fans to take their culinary creations from ordinary to extraordinary while also contributing to an important cause."
Subway's four 16 oz bottled sauces will roll out to select U.S. grocers and retail stores next week, including Walmart, Kroger, and Albertsons, with more to be added, a release stated. Subway and T. Marzetti also collaborated on recipes that highlight the unique flavor of each sauce, like Asian Chicken Bowl or Grilled Shrimp Salsa, making cross-merchandising even easier for retailers.
Additionally, the Subway® Sauce program helps support the Fresh Start Scholarship Fund—a program that offers tuition assistance to Sandwich Artists, Subway restaurant employees.
"Subway's signature sauces have become industry icons and household names, helping to introduce beloved flavors like teriyaki and chipotle to millions of Americans," said Carl Stealey, President of T. Marzetti Company's retail business. "We're honored that Subway trusted T. Marzetti to help build on that legacy and bring their sauces to kitchens across the country through this exclusive licensing agreement."
Now, excuse me while I go eagerly await this launch.
