Does Body Brain Center have the right to require a manager to visit their headquarters for an interview?

According to Body Brain Center's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee purchases more franchises than they have owners, they must hire a manager for each center not managed by an owner. Body Brain Center must approve each manager. As part of the approval process, Body Brain Center has the right to require that the manager visit their headquarters for an interview.

In addition to the interview, the manager must successfully complete the initial training program, for which the franchisee must pay a fee. The manager must also sign a Brand Protection Agreement before attending training. These requirements ensure that all managers meet Body Brain Center's standards and are committed to protecting the brand.

This requirement is fairly standard in the franchise industry, as franchisors typically want to ensure that anyone managing a franchise location is properly trained and committed to upholding brand standards. The cost of the training fee for each manager should be considered when evaluating the potential costs of operating a Body & Brain Center franchise.
