What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Amorino's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee operates more than one Amorino store, or if the Supervising Principal cannot dedicate full-time efforts to managing the store, they must appoint a Manager. This Manager requires advance approval from Amorino.
To gain approval, the Manager must complete Amorino's initial training program and any additional training to Amorino's satisfaction. The Manager is expected to have full control over and dedicate their full-time efforts to the daily management and operation of the store.
The Manager cannot be involved in any other business or activity that demands significant management responsibility or time. If the Manager leaves the position or no longer qualifies, the franchisee has 30 days to appoint a qualified replacement, who also needs advance approval from Amorino and must complete the required training programs to Amorino's satisfaction.
