What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bhc's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee is responsible for covering the expenses associated with the Initial Training program. This includes costs incurred by the franchisee's trainees and attendees, such as their daily allowance, transportation, and other living expenses. This applies to the initial training and any subsequent training, conferences, conventions, or meetings that the trainees attend.
Furthermore, the franchisee is also responsible for covering the expenses that Bhc incurs for training, including daily allowances, travel, meals, and living expenses for the training staff. These costs can vary depending on the franchise location and other factors.
If the franchisee or their attendees do not successfully complete the Initial Training, they will be required to attend the entire program again, bearing all associated costs. This reinforces the importance of thorough preparation and successful completion of the training program to avoid additional expenses and delays in opening the Affiliate Franchised Bhc Restaurant. This is a fairly standard practice in franchising, where franchisees typically bear the costs of their own training and related expenses.
