What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Devon Creek's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisor provides pre-opening training of four weeks for the franchisee and up to one additional person. This means that at no additional cost, two people can attend the pre-opening training.
The FDD also states that the cost of the instructors, training materials, and up to two days of on-site training are included in the initial franchise fee. However, franchisees are responsible for all travel and personal expenses, including transportation and most meals, for themselves and their personnel.
If a franchisee wishes to send additional trainees or replacement trainees to the initial training, Devon Creek charges a fee of $400 per person per day per trainer. The document does not specify the maximum number of additional or replacement trainees that can attend the training, but it does state that Devon Creek reserves the right to terminate the Franchise Agreement if the franchisee does not complete the Initial Management Training Program to their satisfaction.
