    Remember when eating out used to be a treat? Over the past 40 years, we have moved out of the kitchen and into the car for mealtime. Nearly one-quarter of all meals are eaten away from home. The odds that frequently eating fast food meals can "super size" you are real. But to prevent unwanted and unhealthy weight gain, is it enough to change your choice of food, drink, or portion sizes at fast food restaurants? Or do we need to change your attitudes about eating and the places where you eat?…

    I have chosen SUBWAY® as an Multi-National Company for my assignment. Subway was opened by Fred DeLuca at the age of seventeen in 1965 with the help of a friend, Dr.Peter Buck, who invested $1000 in his first sandwich shop which was named Pete’s Super Submarine which was located in Bridgeport, Connecticut which was meant to fund his dreams of becoming a doctor. He set a goal of having 32 stores in 10 years but by 1964, they had only 16 stores. They realized that they would not be able to reach their goal in time therefore they started franchising their sandwich shop as SUBWAY®. SUBWAY® today is the largest sandwich shop in the world consisting of over 34,000 stores in 97 countries whose aim is to provide their consumers with fast and nutritious meals that are indented for all ages. The company has since grown into a multi-billion dollar business offering over 2 million different sandwich combinations which are served at 2,800 per minute which is equivalent to wrapping around the planet 6 times in a year.
