Does Itan reimburse travel expenses for onsite training provided during the opening of the Salon?

According to Itan's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Itan does not charge franchisees for travel expenses related to the initial onsite training provided during the opening of their salon. Specifically, Itan sends a representative to the franchisee's salon for approximately five days to provide onsite training and assist with the salon opening.

Itan explicitly states that it "will not charge any additional fee or Travel Expense reimbursement for this onsite training and assistance." This means that while the franchisee is responsible for their own travel and lodging to attend initial training, Itan covers the travel expenses for its representative who comes to the franchisee's location to provide support during the opening phase.

This is a notable benefit for Itan franchisees, as it reduces the financial burden associated with opening a new location. Franchisees should confirm the scope and duration of this onsite support during their due diligence, as well as any conditions that might affect Itan's obligation to provide it without charge.
