Franchise headquarters, as further described in this Item below, and we will send one or more individuals to provide you with five consecutive days of on-site training and store opening assistance at the location for your Store. (Franchise Agreement, Sections 7.A and 7.C). You will be responsible for all travel, lodging, dining and similar costs for the individual who provides such assistance at your Store, as well as for any trainees who attend the training. We do not have a fixed schedule for offering initial training programs to new franchisees, rather, we provide the initial training on as as-needed basis, as we sign up new franchisees. We will provide you with the initial training program after you sign the franchise agreement and at least one month before your scheduled opening.
If you sign an area development agreement: a) we only provide you with the Paris ten-day initial training for your first location; and b) we only provide you with the on-site five-day training at your first, second and third stores but not for any additional stores. (Franchise Agreement, Section 7(A); Area Development Agreement, Section 6.1).
At your request (or if we require based on your performance), we will provide additional store opening assistance, for a per diem fee and reimbursement of all travel, lodging, dining and similar costs for the individual(s) providing such additional assistance. (Franchise Agreement, Sections 7.G)

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Amorino's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees receive five consecutive days of on-site training at the store location. This training is provided by one or more individuals sent by Amorino to assist with the store opening. However, the franchisee is responsible for covering all travel, lodging, dining, and similar costs for the individual(s) providing the on-site assistance.
For franchisees who sign an area development agreement, Amorino provides the five-day on-site training at the first, second, and third stores only. On-site training is not provided for any additional stores beyond the first three under an area development agreement.
Amorino may provide additional store opening assistance at the franchisee's request or if Amorino requires it based on the franchisee's performance. This additional assistance is provided at a per diem fee, and the franchisee must also reimburse Amorino for all travel, lodging, dining, and similar costs incurred by the individual(s) providing the assistance.
