What is the Beauty Bungalows franchisee's responsibility regarding travel, accommodation, and other costs if the initial training is not virtual?

According to Beauty Bungalows' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if the initial training program is not held virtually, the franchisee is responsible for covering the costs of personal travel, accommodation, and other expenses for themselves, their designated manager, and their employees while attending the training. This means that franchisees must budget for these expenses in the event that in-person training is required.

The initial training program for Beauty Bungalows consists of up to three days of discussions covering the System, operational techniques, procedures, methods, ordering, accounting, support, quality standards, and practical experience in running the franchise. This training is provided to the franchisee, one designated manager, and/or another management-level employee. The training will occur within sixty days of signing the agreement or within sixty days of designating a location for the business, whichever is later.

Beauty Bungalows also charges a training fee for any additional persons attending the training, whether it is in person or virtual. This fee applies beyond the franchisee, the designated manager, and/or another management-level employee. Franchisees should consider these potential costs when planning for the initial setup and training phase of their Beauty Bungalows franchise.
