What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bambu's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the cost for additional training is the then-current published rates, which are currently $900 per day, plus travel-related expenses. This fee is due before the scheduled additional training.
This additional training fee is payable if a franchisee requests additional persons to attend the Training Program, which is described in Item 11 of the FDD, or if they hire a new Bambū Certified Team Leader. It is important to note that additional training is mandatory for a new Bambū Certified Team Leader.
Bambu also charges $900 per day plus travel related expenses for "Other at Shoppe Location Trainings and Certifications." This fee is payable only if the franchisee requests or Bambu requires additional training specific to the franchisee's location. This differs from the additional training for new team members or additional staff attending the standard training program.
