The Sandwich chain Subway was founded by 17-year-old Fred DeLuca, funded by Peter Buck, in Bridgeport, Connecticut, US.
Did you know why it was named “Subway?”
It has nothing to do with the subway train.
The brand "Subway" connotes the submarine sandwich, commonly known as a sub in North American English.
This Italian-American type sandwich is made from a cylindrical bread roll split lengthwise and filled with meats, cheeses, vegetables, and condiments, resembling the shape of a submarine, hence the name.
Subway in China is called 赛百味, a classic transliteration.
