Maid-Rite
Maid-Rite Sandwich Shoppes were founded in 1926 in Iowa. We are famous for our fresh ground beef loose meat sandwiches, seasoned to perfection and served on a warm bun. Our menu also includes Broaster Chicken, Blue Bunny Ice Cream, Godfather's Pizza, and Seattle's Best Coffee. We are an affordable franchise choice that provides franchisee assistance for a turn-key restaurant. We have a training school for franchisees to assist in learning all aspects of restaurant operations and customer service.
