What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Apricot Lane's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there are two different page counts provided for the POSIM EVO manual. One excerpt from Item 23 details the chapters within the manual, listing a total of 310 pages. Another excerpt from Item 23 details different chapters and does not provide a total page count for the POSIM EVO manual.
Specifically, the first manual excerpt lists chapters such as "Forward" (2 pages), "Introduction to POSIM EVO" (7 pages), "Ringing Up a Customer and Ending Tills" (43 pages), and "Troubleshooting POSIM" (10 pages). The second manual excerpt lists chapters such as "Forward" (2 pages), "Introduction to POSIM EVO" (10 pages), "Item Cards" (10 pages), and "Payment Methods" (10 pages).
Given the discrepancies, a prospective Apricot Lane franchisee should confirm with the franchisor the exact contents and page count of the current POSIM EVO manual to understand the scope of training and reference materials provided. It is important to note that the franchisor can change the manual from time to time.
