STATE COLLEGE — A new franchise sandwich shop is eyeing up a North Atherton Street location for its next home.
Sanket Patel and Arun Patel of the State College are owners of Firehouse Subs in DuBois, and they are planning to bring the chain to Patton Township.
According to a Firehouse Subs spokesman, the new location will create 20 to 25 jobs, including three or four manager posts. It would be the first Firehouse Subs location in Centre County.
Firehouse Subs is known for its signature Hook & Ladder and Firehouse Meatball sandwiches. It was initially formed by firefighters in Jacksonville, Fla. in 1994.
An exact location and opening date has not yet been disclosed.
