According to Jersey Mike's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the specifics of bread storage procedures are found within the Confidential Operations Manual.
The FDD mentions that the manual contains system standards, suggested specifications, operating procedures, and rules prescribed by Jersey Mike's for its restaurants. This manual is provided to the franchisee and contains information relative to the franchisee's obligations and the operation of their franchised restaurant. The manual includes proprietary information and must be kept confidential during and after the franchise term.
The franchisee receives online access to the Confidential Operations Manual, which may include various formats such as audiotapes, videotapes, computer software, and written materials.
