What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Better Blend's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the business must have on-site supervision from the Principal Executive, a properly trained supervisor, or a general manager who has completed Better Blend's training program. This ensures that each Better Blend location is being overseen by someone who is well-versed in the brand's standards and operating procedures.
For a prospective franchisee, this means that if they, as the Principal Executive, cannot always be present, they must ensure their general manager completes the required Better Blend training program. This may involve time and expenses related to the general manager's training. The FDD does not specify the content, length, or location of the general manager training program.
Better Blend retains the right to mandate further training programs for the Principal Executive or any other employees at any time, in any format, and at any location they deem appropriate. They may also charge a reasonable fee for these training programs, and the franchisee is responsible for all travel and living expenses associated with attending these programs. Franchisees should inquire about the details of the general manager training program, including its content, duration, cost, and location, to fully understand the investment required.
