What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Buona's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the estimated on-site training fee for a Buona inline single brand franchise ranges from $39,228 to $69,901. This fee covers the cost of on-site training provided by Buona representatives at the franchisee's location.
Franchisees are required to make two lump sum payments for this fee. A $20,000 deposit is due when the franchise agreement is executed. The remaining balance is paid as the training expenses are incurred.
The on-site training fee covers a daily rate for each training session conducted at the franchisee's site, as well as the travel and living expenses of Buona's representatives. The number of trainers and the duration of the training can vary, depending on what Buona deems necessary for the franchisee's operations. Prospective franchisees should factor this potential variability into their financial planning.
