What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Brueggers Bagels' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are provided with two replacement training sessions during the term of the agreement, with each session covering up to three individuals. If a franchisee wants to send more than three individuals to a replacement training session, they are responsible for specific costs.
Specifically, the franchisee must pay Brueggers Bagels a training fee of $1,600 for each additional individual exceeding the three-person limit. This payment must be made in full before the replacement training commences.
In addition to the training fee, the franchisee is also responsible for covering all other expenses incurred by Brueggers Bagels in connection with the training of these additional individuals. These expenses include the costs of transportation, lodging, and meals for the trainees. This means that the franchisee needs to budget not only for the fixed training fee per person but also for the variable costs associated with travel and accommodation.
