What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bojangles' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, in the event of a development agreement transfer, the transferee's Managing Owner, Designated Operator, and managers are required to complete any training and certification programs that Bojangles has in effect for developers.
The transferee is responsible for covering the expenses associated with these training and certification programs. The specific terms and conditions of the training will be those that Bojangles reasonably requires at the time of the transfer.
This requirement ensures that the individuals managing and operating the Bojangles restaurants under the transferred development agreement are properly trained and certified according to Bojangles' standards. This helps maintain consistency and quality across all Bojangles locations, even after a transfer of ownership or management.
