EARLY YEARS

Our Delicious Beginnings

In 1954, Earl August Sween found an ad in the Wall Street Journal for a Stewart Sandwich Franchise. In 1955, Earl closed the deal and started Stewart Sandwiches in Bloomington, Minnesota. From that humble start, the company expanded to Duluth, MN and then into Iowa, Wisconsin, the Dakotas, Wyoming and Montana over the following decade. In 1967, the company moved to its current Eden Prairie location and opened a new 20,000-square-foot facility. This new facility meets USDA inspection where applicable.

At E.A. Sween, we need talented, hardworking people.

Feeding busy people on the go is an enormous task, requiring people in areas from office to operations, delivery to distribution. Our success is rooted in our employees, which is why we view them as family.

People are everything to us. Our company is family-owned and successful because of our incredible team—who are part of our family. And we’re always looking for more family members.
