FaZe Subs is the first product launch from the FaZe Clan DoorDash partnership announced earlier this year. FaZe Clan members worked with chef and TV personality, Virtual Dining Concepts Culinary Director, Chef Eric Greenspan, to create a full specialty menu featuring original sandwiches that will be available exclusively on the DoorDash platform in select cities across 23 states in the US starting today, July 26th, with plans to expand to additional US cities and Canada later this year.

This ghost kitchen venture is an example of leveraging the FaZe platform into new revenue streams," says Lee Trink, CEO of FaZe Clan. “As a pioneering brand born on the internet, FaZe is perfectly positioned to capitalize on the creator economy’s evolution beyond traditional ad-based revenue to more scalable product-based revenue.“
