When Gregg Majewski left Jimmy John’s in 2003 after five years in C-suite roles including as CEO, he was approached by “anyone and everything,” from private equity firms to big restaurant chains. But, as he explained, “none of them gave me warm fuzzies.”

In the ensuing years he continued to build his franchise development company, Wildcat Investments, operate Jimmy John’s stores as a franchisee (he still owns nine units) and work as a consultant, all the while thinking about the kind of restaurant company he wanted to create.
