What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Body20's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a Required Trainee must provide personal, on-premises supervision at the Body20 studio whenever it is open for business. Additionally, the franchisee's Designated Manager or another trained manager must be available at all times the studio is open.
This requirement ensures that a qualified individual is always present to oversee operations and address any issues that may arise. The franchisee cannot allow any other person or entity to operate, manage, direct, or control the studio without Body20's prior written consent.
If the Designated Manager leaves their position, the franchisee must hire a new Designated Manager and ensure they complete Initial Training within 30 days. If the franchisee cannot immediately appoint and train a Designated Manager, Body20 may provide a temporary Designated Manager, for which the franchisee will be required to pay the Management Fee.
