The Owner
Angie Buchanan has been a Subway franchisee since 1987. Angie first discovered
Subway while a student at UNC-Chapel Hill in 1984. Needing extra money
as most students do, Angie took a job as a Subway sandwich artist. She
spent the next three years perfecting her "artist" abilities and eventually
persuaded the store owner, Peter Slomianyj, and her parents to help her
purchase her own store in Morganton, North Carolina.
At that time there were less than 75 stores in the state. Today, Subway boasts over 500 locations throughout North Carolina.
During this time Angie was blessed with the arrival of her son, Mitchell, the ultimate sandwich artist.
Angie is grateful to each and every person that has made SUBMASTERS the success it is today: the wonderful SUBMASTERS employees and the fabulous people of Burke and surrounding counties.
The same ideals that inspired Angie to make the original decision to own a Subway, continues to motivate the her today. The American ideal of entrepreneurship stands for the best of what we are today: a country where opportunities abound, and a land where anyone can succeed.
