What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Benihana's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the standard equipment, tools, and utensils training takes place at Our Office in Aventura, Florida. This training is classroom-based and lasts for 2 hours.
This means that franchisees or their designated staff will need to travel to Aventura, FL to receive this specific training. This detail is important for prospective franchisees to consider when budgeting for training-related expenses, as it will involve travel and accommodation costs in addition to any franchise fees.
It is also important to note that Benihana may modify the location of training programs, so franchisees should confirm the location and any associated costs before making travel arrangements. The FDD also states that the entire pre-opening training program is subject to change due to updates in materials, methods, the Manual, and personnel without notice.
