What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Dryject's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Dryject determines the location and timing of the initial training program. The initial training program is to be held in Pennsylvania or at another location that Dryject designates. Certain individuals are required to satisfy Dryject's conditions for admission to and graduation from the Initial Training Program. These individuals must also attend and satisfactorily complete any additional training programs that Dryject may establish in the future.
The individuals required to attend the initial training program include the franchisee (if an individual), and at Dryject's option, anyone actively involved in managing or operating the franchised business, key employees, and individuals owning 20% or more of the franchisee entity.
