The brand claims that its oven-toasted sandwiches are made without any artificial colours and are offered in three varieties: Philly Cheesesteak, Chicken Bacon Ranch and Steak & Mushroom.

Papa Johns brand marketing senior vice-president Shivram Vaideeswaran said: “This launch is more than a new menu item—it’s a statement about where our brand is headed.

“We’re taking the flavour and quality leadership we’ve built in pizza and pushing it further.

“We’ve created sandwiches that stand out in a crowded category by delivering a more intense, satisfying, and premium flavour experience.

“Oven-toasted sandwiches are our next step in bringing bold innovation and high-quality ingredients to everything we do.”

Co-headquartered in Atlanta and Louisville, Papa Johns has more than 6,000 restaurants in approximately 50 countries and territories.

The company recently reached an agreement to introduce Deliverect’s Smart Dispatch & Delivery Management platform across all US outlets by the end of 2027.

The partnership is part of Papa Johns’ multi-year drive to modernise its fulfilment technology.
