We are sincerely grateful for our fans’ ongoing dedication and support during the past four decades.” Launched in 1971 in a small shop on South Congress Ave. in Austin, Texas, Schlotzsky’s was home to only one menu item: an one-of-a-kind sandwich called The Original—an 8-inch freshly-baked sourdough bun stuffed with three meats, cheeses, lettuce, tomato, olives, and dressing. Inspired by muffulettas in an Italian grocery store in New Orleans’ French Quarter, The Original was an instant hit in South Austin. Fast forward to today, and the brand has more than 350 corporate and franchise locations worldwide and a menu that offers guests 15 different sandwiches on its famous, unique and round freshly-baked buns, as well as gourmet pizzas made with Fresh-from-Scratch® Embracing its past and looking towards the next 40 years, Schlotzsky’s recently launched a bold nationwide reimage campaign to make all locations Lotz Better® with a refreshed color scheme and a circle theme that reflects the unique round sandwiches offered by the restaurant. The new contemporary design incorporates a fresh, vibrant color scheme, tongue-in-cheek phrases, circular-themed photography as well as a newly implemented service model where crew members hand-deliver food to the tables. Additionally, each new Lotz Better location features a partnership with its sister company, Cinnabon®. With nearly two-thirds of the franchise system already reimaged, company plans call for all locations to have the Lotz Better look by the end of 2011.
