Products & Services
It all began back in 1981, Big Town Hero
was just a twinkle in the eye of a young college student. His idea: to provide
a healthy, better-tasting alternative to fast-food restaurants - a sandwich
shop that served great food with service to match.
Our founder got his experience in the sandwich business in the college town of Corvallis, Oregon. The unique, fresh sandwiches on homemade bread were an instant success. And the Big Town legend was born (although it was known as Campus Hero back then).
Today, Big Town Hero boasts a number of stores throughout Oregon; each with an in-store bakery where we prepare our famous bread from scratch every day. And our numbers are growing as fast as our reputation.
Through the growth, one thing has remained unchanged - our commitment to quality and service:
We guarantee our food and service will meet or exceed your expectations. Every day, at every store.

Training & Support
As part of our on-going effort to enlarge upon the BIG TOWN HERO experience,
we have designed a service-focused training program which we share only with
our franchisees called “25 Bits of Wisdom”. It makes heroes of our
staff and they in turn make believers of your customers.
We'll show you how to recruit, select, train, develop and motivate employees to be top performers.

We also assist you in negotiating the best possible terms, after our representative assesses and approves the proposed location. Our expert staff is available during this important period, to advise you every step of the way. Your attorney may review the lease prior to your signing it.

Why Big Town Hero?
Here are four of the very
tangible ways that we are different and better.
Our Bread.
Our bakers rise with the sun to handcraft bread from scratch, the old fashioned way. We start with bags of flour, sugar, yeast... all of the basic ingredients of great bread. We mix, hand roll and bake our bread right in the store; fresh every day and never day old.
Our Theme.
Our stores are an experience, heavily themed in an entertaining and inspirational way. We celebrate the greatness inside of Heroes... be they sandwiches or people.
First Name Basis Hospitality
At Big Town Hero, we build relationships with our customers; and it all begins with a name. We've chosen to use names rather than numbers when serving our customers. From the time we take their order to the time they leave, our customers are treated with individual hospitality. Our customers are more like family, in a place "where everbody knows your name."
Our Software
We have created specialized software to help you run your Big Town Hero store effectively and profitably. Just a few minutes a day, with our easy to use and friendly system, allows you to have powerful evaluation and management tools at your command. And since our software was created "in house" we can provide you with complete training and support. Some of the features of the Big Town Hero Management Software include Payroll Tracking & Planning Sales Tracking Inventory Management Food Cost Analysis Clip Art Database Contact Manager Direct Mail Manager Financial Reports Sophisticated Security Features Nutritional Analysis Easy to use calendar driven user interface Point and Click controls for most features Best of all... this powerful and useful software is free to you when you purchase a Big Town Hero Franchise
