What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beyond Juicery Eatery's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to conduct continuing training programs for their employees as reasonably necessary. Beyond Juicery Eatery provides initial training for the franchisee's management staff before the restaurant opens. However, the franchisee is responsible for training staff employees at their own cost and expense.
Beyond Juicery Eatery may also require franchisees, their Control Person, Franchisee Designate, and/or Managers to attend additional training programs and seminars during the term of the agreement, for which the franchisee will be responsible for travel and living expenses, including employee wages, in addition to training expenses and the franchisor's trainer expenses. The current costs for additional assistance range from $250 to $1,000 per day per trainer, plus expenses.
If the franchisee requests additional assistance or more employees than Beyond Juicery Eatery deems necessary for opening assistance, the franchisee will be responsible for the trainer's per diem fee and related travel costs, as well as wages, employment-related expenses, travel, and living expenses for their employees. If Beyond Juicery Eatery determines that the staff needs additional training after the initial opening assistance and training, the franchisee is responsible for these additional training costs, including wages, travel, and living expenses of Beyond Juicery Eatery's staff. Failure to complete the training program to Beyond Juicery Eatery's satisfaction may result in termination of the Franchise Agreement.
