What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Jersey Mikes' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the 'Final Golden Bottle' training takes place at the Training Center in Point Pleasant, New Jersey, or at another location in New Jersey as designated by the company. This training includes 0.25 hours of classroom training and 0.5 hours of on-the-job training.
This means that franchisees and their managers will likely need to travel to Point Pleasant, New Jersey, or another designated location within New Jersey, to complete this portion of their training. The 'Golden Bottle' is likely a key operational procedure for Jersey Mikes, and this final training session probably ensures that trainees have mastered the technique.
The fact that Jersey Mikes also conducts similar training at "Various Locations outside of New Jersey" suggests that the company may offer some flexibility in training locations, potentially reducing travel costs for franchisees located far from New Jersey. However, the 'Final Golden Bottle' training specifically appears to be focused in New Jersey.
