Bevaris_Alliance Franchise · 2024 FDDAnswer from 2024 FDD Document
Your owner or managing owner (if multiple owners and approved by us) will be required to attend and complete the initial training course. You will also be required to manage the business on a full-time day-to-day basis for at least the first two years of operations. After two years you may request that we approve the appointment of a designated manager (that has successfully completed the initial training program) that would operate the business on a full-time day-to-day basis. You still maintain the ultimate responsibility for overall management of your Bevaris business.
If you are granted the option to appoint a designated manager, you must appoint a designated manager that has successfully completed the initial training program provided by us.
In the event a designated manager is terminated or leaves your employment, you must step in and manage the day-to-day operation of the business until a replacement designated manager is hired, successfully completes the initial training program, and is otherwise approved by us.

What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to the 2024 Bevaris Alliance Franchise Disclosure Document, the owner or managing owner of a Bevaris Alliance franchise is required to attend and complete the initial training course. If there are multiple owners, the franchisor must approve the managing owner who will attend the training.
Furthermore, the franchisee is required to manage the business on a full-time, day-to-day basis for the first two years of operation. After this period, the franchisee can request approval from Bevaris Alliance to appoint a designated manager to handle the daily operations.
If a designated manager is appointed, that manager must have successfully completed the initial training program provided by Bevaris Alliance. If the designated manager leaves or is terminated, the franchisee must resume managing the business until a replacement is hired, trained, and approved by Bevaris Alliance. This ensures that the Bevaris Alliance business maintains consistent operational standards, even if the owner eventually delegates day-to-day management.
