What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to B Bops's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the company requires that you, or your proposed manager, complete a training course approximately 45 days before the franchise opens. The course is scheduled to coordinate with the opening of your B Bops franchise.
The training course consists of about 25 days of both classroom instruction and on-site training at an existing B Bops Restaurant. The classroom instruction takes place at the company's office in Urbandale, Iowa, while the on-the-job training is conducted at one of the B Bops Restaurants in the greater Des Moines, Iowa area that are owned and operated by B Bops.
This pre-opening training is a crucial step for franchisees to learn the B Bops system. By scheduling the training close to the opening date, B Bops ensures that the franchisee and their manager are well-prepared and that the training is fresh in their minds as they launch their new restaurant. The combination of classroom and on-site training provides a comprehensive learning experience, covering both theoretical knowledge and practical skills necessary to run a successful B Bops franchise.
