What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Fitstop's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, Remedial Training is required as part of the actions necessary to correct a default under the Franchise Agreement. Fitstop, in its sole discretion, may require the franchisee and their Designated Manager to attend this training.
This means that if a Fitstop franchisee fails to meet certain obligations outlined in the Franchise Agreement, Fitstop can mandate that they (and their manager) undergo additional training to rectify the issue. This training is designed to help the franchisee address the specific areas where they are not in compliance with the agreement.
It's important to note that Fitstop may require the franchisee to pay a Training Fee for any Remedial Training that they and their employees attend. As of the issue date of the FDD, this fee is $500 per day per trainer. The franchisee will also be responsible for all expenses incurred while attending the training. This highlights the importance of adhering to the Franchise Agreement to avoid the costs associated with Remedial Training.
In addition to Remedial Training, Fitstop may also require franchisees and their Designated Managers to attend annual Additional/Refresher courses, as they deem necessary. This ongoing training ensures that franchisees stay up-to-date with the latest standards and practices of the Fitstop system.
