Peter Cancro is the chairman of popular sandwich chain Jersey Mike's.
The Tinton Falls, New Jersey-based business recorded $4.2 billion in systemwide sales from more than 3,200 stores in 2025.
It all started in 1972 when Cancro, then 14, got a job at Mike's Subs in his hometown of Point Pleasant, New Jersey.

In 1981, Cancro changed the name to Jersey Mike's and began franchising across the U.S.
