A streamlined business model and menu has established Great Steak as a restaurant concept with nearly four decades of longevity
With more than three decades of serving high-quality cheesesteak sandwiches to millions of fans, Great Steak™ cheesesteak franchise’s simple, classic menu remains relatively unchanged, much like an authentic, great cheesesteak.
Years after its founding, Great Steak continues to garner industry recognition and build a fan base nationwide. In fact, Great Steak was chosen by Franchise Gator as a Top Emerging Franchise for 2019.
“Our growth over the three-plus decades we’ve been in business comes down to our unwavering commitment to the cheesesteak,” says Kari Combs, Vice President of Operations. “When it comes to cheesesteak, if it’s not done right and authentic, you will hear about it from your customers. Our brand’s customers are very passionate: the cheesesteak is not just a sandwich, it’s a category all its own. Customers will drive miles and miles just to get a good cheesesteak. The Great Steak cheesesteak has won a rapidly growing base of customers who are loyal and excited, and they find enormous enjoyment in our commitment to the cheesesteak.”
Streamlined business, support model fuel expansion
