Where is the Antioch Pizza Shop training program held?

According to the 2025 Antioch Pizza Shop Franchise Disclosure Document, the FDD does not specify the physical location of the initial training program. However, it does state that the franchisee and their manager must attend and complete the initial training program to the franchisor's satisfaction before opening their Antioch Pizza Shop business.

The training program's duration varies depending on the franchise type. The Dine-In Restaurant and Take-Out/Delivery Restaurant franchises have a 13-week training period, while the Express Restaurant franchise has a 9-week program, and the Food Truck/Trailer franchise has a 4-week program. The FDD mentions that Antioch Pizza Shop may send representatives to the franchisee's location before and after opening to provide on-site training and opening assistance, lasting up to 3 weeks for Dine-In and Take-Out/Delivery Restaurants, up to 2 weeks for Express Restaurants, and approximately 1 week for Food Truck/Trailer franchises.

The training program includes instructional materials such as the Operations Manual, product preparation materials, recipes, handouts, training lesson plans, books, written materials, and training videos. The training instructors include founders, managers of affiliate-owned Antioch Pizza Shop restaurants, current franchisees, and potentially qualified outside trainers. Antioch Pizza Shop does not maintain a formal training schedule and will schedule initial training as needed. A prospective franchisee should confirm the location of the training with the franchisor.
