What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Desi District's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the initial training program includes both classroom and on-the-job training, with the location of the training being either in Frisco, TX, or at the franchisee's location. The training covers various subjects, including Desi District's culture, operations, pricing, and customer satisfaction.
The total hours of classroom training amount to 37 hours, while on-the-job training accounts for 26 hours. The FDD breaks down the training into specific subjects, such as 'Getting Started with Desi District Culture, History, and Basic Setup,' 'Operations Basics,' 'Front of House Operations,' and 'Back of House Operations.' Each subject has a specified number of classroom and on-the-job training hours.
In addition to the initial training program, Desi District will provide on-site support for up to two weeks in connection with the business opening. This on-site support will assist the franchisee in training employees. The franchisee is responsible for all hiring decisions and employment conditions. Desi District also provides ongoing support after the business opens, including advice on improving the business and resolving operating problems, though in-person support may incur a fee of $600 per day plus expenses.
