Primo Hoagies was founded on Ritner Street in South Philadelphia in 1992 by Nicholas Papanier. Most of its corporate leaders are of Italian descent. In 2002, the restaurant was franchised with its corporate headquarters located in Westville, New Jersey. The current CEO is Rocco Fiorentino. In 2004, Mike Aruanno joined the franchise as vice president. The most popular sandwiches are the “Italian with prosciutto and provolone cheese, Hot Capicola and natural casing Genoa salami”.
The franchise is known for its quality Philadelphia style hoagies. Lindsey Nolen of South Philly Review stated “Primos is Primo when it comes to an Italian Hoagie”. Primo opened in a store in Citizens Bank Park in 2017.
