The beloved Italian hotspot is partnering with Fransmart to offer entrepreneurs a terrific business opportunity
The Italian Place, founded by Adriana Penachio-Sifakis as “THE” destination for those seeking a fresh, delicious, and authentic Italian sub, has announced that it is now extending franchise business opportunities to qualified franchisees, beginning with the DMV area. Since 2016, The Italian Place has received rave reviews about the quality their products including the fresh semolina bread, the bright and lovely style of the Italian carrara marble countertops, and the pleasant greetings they receive from the staff.
“As an Italian-American who grew up in Massachusetts I was surrounded by Italian places and wanted to do something about the lack of storefronts selling fresh, authentic Italian subs and delicacies that had a genuine feeling. We are blending old-world Italian charm with the latest technology offering our customers state-of-the-art ordering options through a mobile app, online ordering, and digital kiosks,” Penachio-Sifakis said.
Opened four years ago, The Italian Place has become a go-to destination for the entire community across the D.C. Metro area who all recognize the value and quality of the fast-casual market. No stranger to high-profile guests walking through its doors, The Italian Place became a favorite of the MLB’s 2019 World Series Champions, the Washington Nationals, and in honor of their support, the store named a few of their sandwiches after players of the team.
“Consistent, high quality and delicious – The Italian Place has cracked the code to what it takes to be a success. We believe The Italian Place is far reaching in the demographic it serves and will be highly sought after not just by customers, but by landlords who want an elevated user in this restaurant category,” Beth Sargent of KLNB said.
The Italian Place is working with Fransmart to find experienced franchisees who will drive the concept’s next phase of growth, and introduce its authentic Italian fare to new markets, starting with it’s next door neighbor – Washington, D.C.

The Eva, Giorgio, and Alessandra custome favorites are all made on fresh baked Italian semolina bread and all-natural meats.
