What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Face Foundrie's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees and their employees must attend and conduct additional training programs that Face Foundrie may reasonably require. These programs relate to the operation of the Facial Bar and the Face Foundrie system. The franchisee may also need to purchase training or instructional materials as specified by Face Foundrie in the Operations Manual or otherwise.
The franchisee is responsible for reimbursing Face Foundrie's trainers for travel, living, and other related expenses for any additional training. The franchisee also covers all travel, living expenses, and wages for their personnel attending training sessions. Face Foundrie reserves the right to charge training program fees beyond the initial training program for the franchisee and their original Operating Partner, especially if Face Foundrie determines the staff is not properly trained before the Facial Bar opens.
This requirement ensures that all Face Foundrie locations maintain a consistent standard of service and adhere to the latest operational practices. For a prospective franchisee, this means budgeting for ongoing training expenses and ensuring that both they and their staff are available to attend required training sessions. Failure to comply with these training requirements could impact the quality of service at the Facial Bar and potentially lead to non-compliance with the franchise agreement.
