About Firehouse Subs
Firehouse Subs was founded in 1994 in Jacksonville, Florida by brothers Chris and Robin Sorensen, both former firefighters, who built the entire brand’s identity around firehouse culture — from the fire truck-red color scheme to menu items named after actual firehouse traditions like the Hook & Ladder.
The chain steam-heats its meats and cheeses on toasted rolls rather than serving them cold or simply warmed, a preparation method the founders say came directly from techniques used in firehouse kitchens. Since 2005, Firehouse Subs has operated the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation, which has granted well over $75 million to first responder organizations nationwide, funded in part by a designated portion of proceeds from every restaurant’s pickle jar donations and select menu sales.
