What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All County's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee is responsible for covering all travel and living expenses incurred by the Managing Owner and any other selected individuals during the initial training program. This means that franchisees must budget for these costs in addition to the franchise fee and other start-up expenses. The initial training consists of four working days. The training location will be determined by All County.
This allocation of expenses is fairly standard in the franchise industry, where franchisees typically bear the costs of their own travel and lodging for training. It is important for prospective All County franchisees to factor in these expenses when evaluating the overall cost of investment. These costs can vary significantly depending on the training location and the number of individuals attending.
In addition to the initial training, All County may require the Managing Owner or experienced employees to attend additional training courses, for which All County may charge reasonable fees. The franchisee is also responsible for the travel and living expenses associated with these additional training sessions. Furthermore, if the franchisee requests additional or special training for their employees, they will be responsible for all expenses incurred by All County, including per diem charges and travel and living expenses for All County personnel.
