Subway Moves

The Subway that has been at 1300 West Main for over a decade has moved across the street to the old Hardee's that has sent empty since the franchise pulled out of C'dale some years ago. Most customers at Subway tend to grab their sandwich and go, reducing the opportunity for the store to make additional sales. To counteract that, this location has added free WiFi and a HDTV, which they hope keeps customers around to order an additional drink or sandwich. Since the new bubilding is set up for drive-through, Subway will now offer that option as well, unlike is previous location or the east side Subway.

From the city's point of view, this is a good thing, since a larger location means more sales, ergo more sales tax collected, unless the franchise worked a deal to get a rebate on sales taxes collected to cover the costs of the remodel.
