We propose a supersymmetric quantum field theory with exotic symmetry related to fracton phases. We use superfield formalism and write down the action of a supersymmetric version of the $\varphi$ theory in $3+1$ dimensions. It contains a large number of ground states due to the fermionic higher pole...
