The military’s loss was a gain to many millions of customers who have entered a Jimmy Johns store since 1983! Jimmy actually thought about starting a hot dog business, but was put off by the costs, and chose sandwiches instead. The company grew from strength to strength, and today Jimmy Johns stores are found in 43 states.
