Roly Poly is an American chain of sandwich stores. They first opened their doors in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1996. At one point in the early 2000s they had over 170 franchises in 27 states, but have since declined to about 67 locations in 19 states in early 2015.[1]
History
The first Roly Poly Sandwich Shop opened in 1997 in the Buckhead section of Atlanta, Georgia. Company founders Linda Wolf and Julie Reid had been rolling sandwiches in their shops in New Canaan, Connecticut (1986) and in Key West, Florida (1997) before building their franchise system.[2]
