American chain Quiznos opens the first restaurants in Russia

At the end of July two Quiznos Sub restaurants have been opened at once in Saint Petersburg: in 136, Engelsa prospect and in 2, Moskovsky prospect. ASTERA, an alliance member of BNP Paribas Real Estate, the project consultant, has served as a broker for premises lease.

The international premium class chain of fast-food restaurants Quiznos announced its plans to enter the Russian market in 2012. QSR Russia Ltd, the international management company and master-franchisee, owns a right to develop the restaurant chain in Russia. The company is planning to open 20 restaurants in Saint Petersburg before the end of 2014. The operator will be developing within the format of three directions: in-built space with the area of up to 150 sq. m in the liquid locations, food-courts in popular shopping centres, large business quarters. Within the following decade QSR Russia Ltd will expand its chain to comprise up to 500 restaurants all around Russia by means of sub-franchising. The cities with population over one million citizens, such as cities of Yekaterinburg, Sochi, Omsk, Saratov, etc. - will be of top priority in the development strategy of the chain.
