R&V General Contractor Corp. was selected to build the first Firehouse Subs store in western Puerto Rico. This was a location of particular importance as Aguadilla is a hot spot for tourists who visit the area for its beaches and surfing spots, so the parent company needed this store to be up and running in the least possible time.
The project consisted of a 1,600 square-foot store complete with HVAC system, commercial kitchen, drive-thru window, decoration and exterior signage including a 45-foot-tall pilot sign.
R&V assigned three work groups each day in order to meet its customer’s required deadline. In the end, the store was completed and fully-operational in less than two months, setting a record for a Firehouse Subs restaurant build.
