What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Chesters's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Additional Training or Assistance fee is due as incurred. This means that the fee becomes payable at the time Chesters provides the additional training or assistance to the franchisee.
The amount of this fee will not exceed $1,000 per day. Payment is required via credit card or automatic debit. This fee covers training and assistance beyond what Chesters typically provides to its franchisees.
For a prospective Chesters franchisee, this means that if they require extra support or guidance beyond the standard training, they should be prepared to pay up to $1,000 per day for it. It is important to clarify with Chesters what is included in the standard training and assistance to avoid unexpected costs. Budgeting for potential additional training needs is advisable, especially during the initial setup or when implementing new systems or procedures.
