What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Buns On Fire's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, prior to opening a franchised business, at most two managers, with at least one being a partner from the ownership group, must attend the franchisor's initial training program. This program is conducted at a Buns On Fire restaurant location designated as convenient or another location designated by the franchisor. The training must be completed to the franchisor's satisfaction.
For franchisees opening a second or subsequent Buns On Fire location, the franchisor may reduce the number of managers required to complete the training or waive the requirement for a member of the ownership group to attend. However, a trained and approved manager must be on duty at all times the franchised business is open.
The FDD does not specify the length of the initial training program or whether a Buns On Fire representative will stay at the franchisee's location for training. A prospective franchisee should contact the franchisor for more information regarding the duration and location of the training program, as well as the extent of on-site support provided during the opening phase.
