Jimmy John's has launched a new collection of Mediterranean-inspired food offerings featuring two innovative wraps: the 'Mediterranean Chicken Wrap' and the 'Mediterranean Veggie Wrap' rolled and served in a green-colored pita.
Both wraps incorporate 'Sabra Roasted Red Pepper Hummus,' America’s leading hummus brand. Additionally, the lineup includes 'Pita Jimmy Chips,' served with Sabra Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, marking Jimmy John’s debut of pita chips as a club and sub-sandwich chain.
These fresh offerings also embody the essence of summer vacation. "At Jimmy John’s, we want our guests to experience the flavors of the Mediterranean without having to pack their bags," said Kate Carpenter, Jimmy John’s Vice President of Marketing.
Introducing such Mediterranean-inspired options allows consumers to enjoy diverse and flavorful dishes, enhancing their sandwich experience with high-quality, seasonal ingredients.
