What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Brueggers Bagels's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Brueggers Bagels will provide franchisees with two replacement training sessions during the term of the Franchise Agreement. Each replacement training session can accommodate up to three individuals. These sessions are intended to train new managers if a Certified Manager leaves their position or is not approved by Brueggers Bagels.
If a franchisee needs to send more than three individuals to a replacement training session or requires more than the two provided sessions, they will incur a training fee. This fee is $1,600 for each additional individual, payable before the training begins. Additionally, the franchisee is responsible for covering all other expenses Brueggers Bagels incurs in connection with the training, including transportation, lodging, and meals for the additional trainees.
This policy ensures that Brueggers Bagels franchisees have access to ongoing training resources to maintain operational standards. However, it also highlights the importance of carefully managing staff and anticipating training needs to avoid additional costs. The fees associated with extra training can add up, so franchisees should plan accordingly and ensure their managers are well-prepared and likely to remain in their positions.
