What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Crave's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Food Prep Station training takes place at either a training facility designated by Crave or at an operating Crave business. For the restaurant model, the Food Prep Station training consists of 1 hour of classroom training and 2 hours of on-the-job training. For the food truck model, the Food Prep Station training consists of 1 hour of classroom training and 1 hour of on-the-job training.
This means that franchisees and their staff will receive hands-on experience in a real Crave setting or a designated training location, ensuring they are well-prepared to handle food preparation tasks. The on-site training at an operating Crave business allows trainees to learn in a practical environment, observing and participating in the day-to-day operations.
The flexibility of having training at either a designated facility or an operating business provides Crave with options to accommodate different training needs and schedules. Franchisees should confirm with Crave the specific location for their training and any associated travel costs.
