What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Baya Bar's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, failure to attend and/or complete mandatory additional training or failure to attend Baya Bar's national business meeting or annual convention constitutes a default of the Franchise Agreement. To rectify this, the franchisee or their principal(s) must obtain the missed mandatory additional training at a location designated by Baya Bar.
The franchisee is responsible for covering all costs and expenses associated with this additional training. These costs include tuition at the then-current rate, as well as all transportation, meals, and lodging expenses for both the franchisee (or their principal) and Baya Bar's training personnel.
Furthermore, the franchisee is obligated to reimburse Baya Bar for any expenses incurred by Baya Bar's training personnel within ten days of receiving the bill from Baya Bar. This ensures that Baya Bar is promptly compensated for the resources it expends in providing the make-up training.
