Rush for food jobs at Subway store that doesn't exist

By Food Job Blogger on 29 July 2010 | Comments 0

Representatives at fast food chain Subway have reported that they have received dozens of food job applications for a store in Ely, Cambridgeshire. The problem with this is that there is no Subway outlet in Ely, nor are there any plans to build one.

Residents in Ely claim that rumours have abounded about a new Subway outlet on the High Street for months, especially after construction started on a vacant two-sided premises formerly occupied by Curry's. A staff member from a nearby café said:

"We've heard Subway is going there for months - everyone's been talking about it."


In response to the flood of food job applications they have received, Subway have categorically denied that they have any plans to open a restaurant on Ely High Street. A spokesperson for the company said:

"This is getting quite worrying now. These are simply rumours - we have no plans to move to Ely at all."


"We have received dozens of job applications as a result of these rumours and they really do need to stop as there is no element of truth in them whatsoever."


The letting agent in charge of the vacant premises also confirmed that no new tenant had signed up yet.
