What is the condition for Hawaiian Bros Island Grill to provide additional on-site training at a Restaurant?

According to Hawaiian Bros Island Grill's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, additional on-site training at a franchisee's restaurant is subject to the availability of trainers. If trainers are available, Hawaiian Bros Island Grill will provide the training upon the franchisee's request. However, the franchisee is responsible for paying an hourly training fee for each trainer and reimbursing Hawaiian Bros Island Grill for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with providing the additional training. The current hourly training fee is $250, but increases to $350 per hour during weeks with a national holiday.

This means that while Hawaiian Bros Island Grill offers ongoing support, franchisees need to factor in the costs associated with this additional training. The hourly fees and reimbursement of expenses can add up, especially if extensive on-site training is required. Franchisees should carefully assess their training needs and budget accordingly.

It is common in the franchise industry for franchisors to provide initial training and ongoing support, but the specifics of additional training and associated costs can vary. Some franchisors may include a certain amount of on-site support in their franchise agreement, while others charge additional fees for it. Franchisees should compare the training and support offered by different franchisors and consider the costs involved when making their decision.

Prospective Hawaiian Bros Island Grill franchisees should inquire about the typical duration and scope of additional on-site training, as well as the potential costs involved, to better understand the financial implications. They should also clarify how trainer availability is determined and how far in advance they need to request additional training.
