What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Ella Cafe's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee cancels, fails to attend, or doesn't complete an on-site training program or scheduled visit, they must pay an 'On-Site Training Cancellation Fee'. The amount of this fee can vary based on the type of training program scheduled and how far in advance the franchisee notifies Ella Cafe of the cancellation in writing.
This fee covers Ella Cafe's costs and expenses incurred in rescheduling travel arrangements. This means that franchisees need to be aware of the potential costs associated with last-minute cancellations or no-shows for on-site training.
To avoid these fees, franchisees should provide ample written notice when canceling or rescheduling training. It is important to communicate promptly with Ella Cafe regarding any changes to training schedules to minimize potential cancellation fees. Franchisees should clarify the specific cancellation fee amounts and notification deadlines for each type of training program to manage these costs effectively.
