Does Anago charge tuition for its training program?

According to Anago's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Anago does not charge tuition for its initial training program. However, franchisees are responsible for covering their own expenses related to travel, lodging, personal costs, compensation for attendees, and other expenses incurred while attending the training. The initial training program is mandatory for all new Master Franchise owners and must be completed within 90 days of signing the Subfranchise Rights Agreement. This training typically lasts for two weeks but may be shorter if the franchisee has prior experience in the janitorial business.

Anago may also provide additional training at its principal training facility, which may be required at Anago's sole option. Franchisees are responsible for all expenses associated with these additional training programs, including the then prevailing standard rates Anago charges for these programs, as well as all travel, meals, and lodging costs for attendees. Franchisees are also required to attend Anago's Annual Seminar at least once per year, at their own expense. This seminar typically lasts 2-3 days, and franchisees must fully participate in all scheduled events.

While Anago does not charge tuition for the initial training, the costs associated with travel, accommodation, and potential additional training programs should be considered by prospective franchisees. These costs can add up and should be factored into the overall investment required to start and operate an Anago franchise. It is important for potential franchisees to budget accordingly and inquire about the potential costs of additional training programs and the annual seminar to have a clear understanding of the financial obligations involved.
