Port of Subs (Regional Developer) lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
Port of Subs (Regional Developer)'s most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026) does disclose 1 legal proceeding in Item 3 . Item 3 is the item where a franchisor must put its material legal history on the record. Two things it is not: it covers the franchisor and its predecessors, parents and affiliates, so a disclosed case is not necessarily a suit against Port of Subs (Regional Developer) itself; and a disclosure is a fact, not a finding of wrongdoing — most entries are contract disputes with former franchisees, which every large system accumulates. Item 3 of the source FDD describes each case.
Port of Subs (Regional Developer) closures & failure rate
Before you sign, Port of Subs (Regional Developer) will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what Port of Subs (Regional Developer)'s most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a real estate of this kind.
The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Port of Subs (Regional Developer)'s outlet tables did not machine-read cleanly; Item 20 of the source FDD has them.
