What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Amorino FDD, the company provides and pays for the training instructors, facilities, and materials for the initial training program. The initial training program is mandatory for the Supervising Principal or Manager before opening the store. The first ten days of training take place at Amorino's headquarters in Paris, France.
In addition to the initial training in Paris, Amorino provides on-site trainers for five consecutive days to assist with the store opening. These trainers help organize the store and direct operations during the opening. This on-site training concludes the initial training program.
Franchisees are responsible for all other costs associated with training, including salaries, travel, lodging, and dining costs for their employees who participate. If a franchisee signs an area development agreement, Amorino only provides the ten-day Paris training for the first location and the five-day on-site training for the first, second, and third stores. For additional stores beyond the third, the franchisee bears the full cost of training.
