In the Name of Allah, the Inspirer of Truth.
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

We have contacted them but they have not replied. Kindly contact them asking the following questions:
1. Are the majority of your products meat-related? Would that be a major portion of your business?

2. Do you sell products which are suitable for vegetarians?
(a) If so, do you ensure that vegetarian products are strictly kept separate from meat products from beginning to end?

(b) Are they baked in a separate oven, if not do you ensure that the vegetarian products do not come into contact with meat products?

© Would the staff ensure that they use a pair of tongs designated for veggie products when serving etc?

3 I understand Subway sell sandwiches. You sell sandwiches where the filling is non-meat. However, when making the sandwiches is it ensured only veggie products are made on a designated desktop away from the meat? Would they make meat and veggie sandwiches at the same time or are there separate desktop areas ensuring contamination does not take place?

4. Can Subway guarantee that no contamination with meat products take place with reference to non-meat products.

Relay the responses to us for a decision
