What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Amorino's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a Manager ceases to serve in their position or no longer qualifies for it, the franchisee has 30 days to designate another qualified person as a replacement. This replacement Manager must be approved in advance by Amorino and must complete Amorino's initial training and any other additional training to Amorino's satisfaction.
This requirement ensures that each Amorino store has a qualified individual overseeing daily operations, especially if the Supervising Principal is not able to dedicate their full time efforts to the store or if the franchisee operates more than one location. The Manager's role is to have full control over and devote their full-time efforts to the day-to-day management and operation of the store.
The 30-day window provides a limited timeframe for the franchisee to find a suitable replacement and obtain the necessary approvals from Amorino. This ensures continuity in the store's management and adherence to Amorino's standards. Failing to replace the manager within this timeframe could potentially lead to operational issues or non-compliance with the franchise agreement.
