THE QUIZNO'S CORPORATION                
MANAGEMENT'S   DISCUSSION   AND  ANALYSIS   OF   FINANCIAL        
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS                 

Overview                                                                        

The   Company's   primary  business,  and  the   focus   of   its               
organizational  structure, continues to be  franchising  QUIZNO'S               
restaurants.  As a franchisor, revenue is derived from; (1)  area               
director  marketing  fees, (2) initial franchise  fees,  and  (3)               
royalties  paid  by franchisees.  Area director fees  occur  only               
once for each exclusive area sold.  Although the Company believes               
there  are a substantial number of markets remaining to be  sold,               
eventually  such fees are expected to decline as  the  number  of               
available remaining markets decline.  Initial franchise fees  are               
one time fees paid upon the sale of a franchise and vary directly               
with  the  number of franchises the Company can  sell  and  open.               
Royalties,  on  the other hand, are ongoing fees  paid  by  every               
franchised  restaurant  and  will  increase  as  the  number   of               
franchised  restaurants  increase.   Each  of  these  sources  of               
revenue contributes to the profitability of the Company, but  the               
relative  contribution of each source will vary  as  the  Company               
matures.   The  Company expects that over time initial  franchise               
fees and royalties will generate proportionally more revenue than               
area director marketing fees.                                                   

The  following chart reflects the Company's growth  in  terms  of               
units, franchise sales, and systemwide sales.

THE QUIZNO'S CORPORATION                
MANAGEMENT'S   DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS   OF   FINANCIAL       
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)               

(1) In 1994, the Quizno's restaurant was significantly redesigned               
to  reduce initial costs, reduce breakeven sales levels,  and  to               
fit  the  units  in  spaces  50% to 60% smaller  than  previously               
required.   The  Company expected reduced sales at these  smaller               
locations, but with a corresponding reduction in operating costs,               
including rent, labor and utilities.  Thus, although volumes  are               
lower,   the   breakeven  point  is  also  lower,  resulting   in               
approximately  the same return on sales and a  higher  return  on               
investment for such locations.                                                  
(2)  Same  store  sales is based on 64 stores.  41  of  these  64               
stores are located in Colorado, the Company's largest market  for               
Quizno's  restaurants.  In keeping with a recent industry  trend,               
many  QSR  chains  are  experiencing reduced  same  store  sales.               
Quizno's decrease is attributable, in large part to the fact that               
included  in  the  mix  are the Company's  top-volume  stores  in               
Colorado which are approaching their maturity after several years               
of  double  digit  growth.  The other factor  that  impacted  the               
Company's decrease is the fact that some new market stores, which               
are  not  yet operating in markets built out to a critical  mass,               
have  come  into the mix.  In response, the Company has  replaced               
the  head  of  its  marketing department  with  a  person  having               
substantial  experience  and credentials  in  the  quick  service               
restaurant  industry, committed to contribute up to  an  addition               
$360,000  to retail advertising in 1996, and, beginning in  March               
of  1996,  offered  a value priced meal in many  of  its  markets               
backed by the largest media advertising campaign in the Company's               
history.                                                                        

(3)  Because  the  Company  is and will  continue  to  be  in  an               
aggressive  growth mode for the next few years, it is anticipated               
that  same store sales will fluctuate as we track units operating               
in   evolving  market  mixes.   The  Company  will  continue   to               
concentrate on its overall rapid growth as a primary goal and  to               
provide interpretation of same store sales from year to year.                   
Results of Operations                                                           

Comparison  of the First  Quarter of 1996 with the First  Quarter               
of 1995                                                                         

Total  revenue  increased 20% in the first  quarter  of  1996  to               
$1,565,343 from $1,302,276 for the same quarter last year.                      
Royalty  fees  increased  52% in the first  quarter  of  1996  to               
$318,935  from  $209,576 in the same quarter last year.   Royalty               
fees  are  a  percentage of each franchisee's sales paid  to  the               
company  weekly  or monthly and will increase as  new  franchises               
open,  sales  increase,  and  as the average  royalty  percentage               
increases.  Company owned stores do not pay royalties.  At  March               
31,  1996  there were 108 franchises open as compared  to  63  at               
March  31, 1995.  The royalty fee is between 4% and 6%, depending               
on  when  the  franchise  was  purchased.   The  Company  has  no               
immediate plans to further increase the royalty percent.

MANAGEMENT'S   DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS   OF   FINANCIAL       
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)               

Initial  franchise fees increased 240% in the  first  quarter  of               
1996  to  $255,000  from $75,000 in the same quarter  last  year.               
Initial  franchise fees are one time fees paid by franchisees  at               
the  time the franchise is sold, and are not recognized as income               
until  the  period  in  which  all of the  Company's  obligations               
relating  to  the  sale have been substantially performed,  which               
generally occurs when the franchise opens.  In the first  quarter               
of  1996,  the  Company opened 13 franchises  as  compared  to  6               
franchises  opened in the first quarter of 1995.   The  Company's               
initial  franchise fee has been $20,000 since November  1,  1994.               
Some  of  the  franchises opened in the  first  quarter  of  1996               
purchased  the  franchise before November 1,  1994  and  paid  an               
initial franchise fee less than $20,000.  Beginning in 1996,  the               
Company  will sell an existing franchisee a second franchise  for               
$15,000,  and a third for $10,000.  For franchises to be operated               
in  non-traditional kiosk type locations with  another  business,               
the  initial franchise fee is $10,000 for the first,  $7,500  for               
the second, and $5,000 for additional franchises.                               

For a limited period of time in 1996, estimated to begin June  1,               
1996  and continue through August 15, 1996, the Company will sell               
to  approved  franchisees  one  additional  franchise  for  every               
currently  effective franchise agreement for an initial franchise               
fee  of  $1,000.  Such franchises must be opened by December  31,               
1996.  If the purchaser does not have a franchise currently open,               
the  first  franchise must be open by December 31, 1996  and  the               
second franchise, purchased under this discount program, must  be               
opened by December 31, 1997.                                                    

Area  director marketing fees increased 38% in the first  quarter               
of  1996 to $250,488 from $180,895.  Area director marketing fees               
are  one  time  fees paid to the Company for the  right  to  sell               
franchises in a designated, non-exclusive, geographical area. The               
fee  is  $.03 per person in the designated area, plus a  training               
fee  of  $10,000.  The population based portion  of  the  fee  is               
deemed  fully  earned  by  the Company  when  the  area  director               
marketing agreement is signed and is recognized as income in that               
period.  In the first quarter of 1996 the company sold four  area               
directorships as compared to two area directorships sold  in  the               
first  quarter  of 1995.  At March 31, 1996, the  Company  had  a               
total  of  49  area  directors  who owned  areas  encompassing  a               
population  base equal to approximately 45% of the population  of               
the United States.                                                              

THE QUIZNO'S CORPORATION                
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL               
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)               

In  1995  the Company began offering long term financing to  area               
director  candidates for up to 50% of the area director marketing               
fee.   The amount financed is required to be paid to the  Company               
in installments over five years ranging from 11% to 15% interest.               
The  promissory notes are personally signed by the area  director               
and  secured  by  collateral unrelated to the area  directorship,               
usually  a second mortgage in the area director's home.   Of  the               
four  area  directorships sold in the first quarter of 1996,  one               
used this financing for $22,500.  A portion, $156,486 as of March               
31,  1996,  of  the area director marketing fees  for  the  first               
quarter  of  1996,  were financed for terms of  approximately  30               
days.                                                                           

Sales  by  Company  owned stores decreased by  6%  in  the  first               
quarter of 1996 to $627,992 from $667,272 in the first quarter of               
1995.   In  1996, the Company operated seven stores for the  full               
three  months (the eighth store is located in a baseball  stadium               
and  did  not  re-open until April).  In the first  quarter  last               
year,  the Company also operated seven stores.  During the  first               
quarter  of 1996 the Company earned a profit of $9,567 at Company               
stores  compared  to a loss of $34,567 in the same  quarter  last               
year.    Management  does  not  expect  to  acquire  or  sell   a               
significant number of Company stores in 1996.                                   

The net loss from stores held for resale was $13,583 in the first               
quarter  of  1996.  The 1996 loss is attributable  to  one  store               
taken  over during the quarter from a franchisee and operated  by               
the  Company until it was resold to a new franchisee on March 31,               
1996.                                                                           

Sales  and royalty commissions expense increased 405% to $133,726               
in the first quarter of 1996 from $26,477 in the first quarter of               
1995.   Sales and royalty commissions represent amounts  paid  to               
the  area  directors of the Company under the new  area  director               
program implemented in March of 1995.  Since this program was not               
implemented  until  the end of the first  quarter  of  1995,  the               
related  expenses  for that quarter were small.   Area  directors               
receive  a sales commission equal to 50% of the initial franchise               
fees  received by the Company for franchises sold and  opened  in               
the  area directors territory.  Area directors also are paid  40%               
of  the royalties received by the Company from franchises open in               
the  area  directors territory.  In exchange for these  payments,               
the  area  director  is required to market and  sell  franchises,               
provide  location selection assistance, provide  on-site  opening               
assistance  to  new  franchisees,  and  perform  monthly  quality               
control  reviews  at each franchise open in the  area  director's               
territory.   Sales and royalty commission expense is expected  to               
continue  to  increase  in direct proportion  to  the  number  of               
franchise openings and the increase in royalty fee revenue.

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)               

Franchise advertising and promotion expenses increased to $88,573               
in  the first quarter of 1996 from $7,451 in the first quarter of               
1995.   The  increase  reflects the Company's  commitment  to  an               
aggressive  and  rapid  franchise sales and development  program,               
which includes consistent and regular national advertising of the               
Company's franchise opportunity combined with regularly scheduled               
orientation  and discovery days for franchise and  area  director               
candidates.                                                                     

General and administrative expenses increased 36% to $738,267 for               
the  first quarter of 1996 from $542,303 in the same quarter last               
year.   General and administrative expenses include  all  of  the               
operating  expenses  of the Company.  The  Company  believes  its               
general  and  administrative expenses are adequate  and  are  not               
excessive in relation to the size of the Company.                               

Loss  on  sale of Company stores was $60,079 in the first quarter               
of  1996.  The loss is primarily related to a franchised store in               
Missouri that was taken over by the Company from a franchisee and               
sold  to a new franchisee, all within the first quarter of  1996.               
In addition, the Company incurred costs related to the sale of  a               
Company owned store in Michigan sold in the first quarter of 1996               
that  were  over  and above the amount reserved at  December  31,               
1995.  There were no Company stores sold in the first quarter  of               
1995.                                                                           

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES                                                 

Net  cash  used by operating activities in the first  quarter  of               
1996  was  $356,089 compared to cash used in operating activities               
of  $103,807 in the same quarter last year.  Of the $356,089 used               
in   operations  in  the  first  quarter  of  1996,  $178,986  is               
attributable to promissory notes accepted for area director fees,               
of which $156,486 was paid within the five weeks after the end of               
the quarter.                                                                    

Net  cash  used in investing activities in the first  quarter  of               
1996  was  $175,541 compared to cash used in investing activities               
of $106,846 in the first quarter of 1995.  Cash used by investing               
activities in the first quarter of 1996 was primarily related  to               
the  acceptance of a promissory note for $115,000 related to  the               
sale of a store located in Missouri on March 31, 1996.

MANAGEMENT'S   DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS   OF   FINANCIAL       
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)               

Cash  used by financing activities in the first quarter  of  1996               
was  $114,779  compared to cash used by financing  activities  of               
$81,070  in  the  same quarter last year.  The amounts  for  both               
years represent primarily cash used for the reduction of debt and               
the payment of preferred stock dividends.                                       

The  Company  had  cash and cash equivalents  of  $1,038,013  and               
positive  working  capital of $992,239 at March  31,  1996.   The               
Company has a commitment to build and finance a turnkey store  in               
Florida  on  behalf of a franchisee, if requested.   The  Company               
currently  has no other commitments to build turnkey stores,  nor               
does  the Company any longer offer a turnkey development  program               
to its franchisees.                                                             

The Company has made commitments and has plans under way in which               
it  will provide up to approximately $360,000 in funds to be used               
for retail advertising by franchisee advertising cooperatives  in               
several  markets in 1996.  Of this amount, approximately $170,000               
will be in the form of interest bearing loans that will be repaid               
in  1997.   The balance of approximately $190,000 will be  grants               
that will be expensed by the Company in 1996.                                   

Other  than  the above, the Company's operations as a  franchisor               
are  not capital intensive.  The Company has been able to finance               
its operations and growth, excluding company owned stores,                      
through   initial  franchise  fees,  area  director   fees,   and               
royalties.                                                                      

The  Company does not expect seasonality to effect its operations               
in   a   materially  adverse  manner.   However,  the   Company's               
restaurant sales, and therefore royalties, during the  months  of               
November through February are generally lower due to the location               
of most of its restaurants.
