In 1978, Terrell Braly, along with a group of investors converted a closed Sinclair gas station at in Denver, Colorado[1] into a sandwich shop called "Sandwich World". Hussain "Jeff" Jaffarie, the store manager at the time and originally from Iran began the practice of toasting sandwiches in a pizza oven that had been provided by Tombstone pizza. In 1979, a competing resturant opened across the street[where?] from the converted fuel station. Trading as Footers Restaurant and owned by Jimmy Lambatos and Todd Disner, this business offered to buy the larger and better located Sandwich World operation. The take-over was accepted in early 1980.
The new owners of Sandwich World changed the name to Quiznos and began a franchising operation. A University of Colorado student, named Rick Schaden, decided to start a Quiznos franchise in Boulder, Colorado. Schaden, along with his father, later purchased the parent operation.
As of 2008, Quiznos is currently a privately held Limited Liability Company. Schaden remains as chairman with his family controlling the company.
