What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All County's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if the franchisee requests or All County requires additional or special training for the franchisee's employees, the franchisee is responsible for all expenses incurred in connection with that training. These expenses include per diem charges and travel and living expenses for All County personnel.
This means that beyond the initial and ongoing training fees, an All County franchisee could face unpredictable costs if All County deems additional training necessary or if the franchisee requests it. These costs are not capped and depend on the per diem rates, travel, and living expenses for All County's trainers.
Prospective franchisees should consider this potential financial burden and inquire about the circumstances that might trigger such additional training. Understanding the typical costs associated with these scenarios is crucial for accurate financial planning. It would be prudent to discuss with existing franchisees how often they've needed to utilize this additional training and what the typical costs were.
