What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Kitchen Solvers' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee cannot begin operating their business until they successfully complete the KITCHEN SOLVERS Pre-Opening Training Program. The franchisee is responsible for covering the expenses for room, board, and travel to attend the training program at a location designated by Kitchen Solvers.
Furthermore, if a franchisee receives a notice of default related to operational standards, Kitchen Solvers may require the franchisee to attend and successfully complete additional training at the franchisee's expense as a condition of curing the default. If a franchisee intends to operate the business with a manager other than themselves, that manager must also attend and successfully complete the Pre-Opening Training Program at the franchisee's expense before beginning operations.
Kitchen Solvers also offers in-field training at their current rate, if requested by the franchisee and agreed upon by Kitchen Solvers. They will also provide additional ongoing support training as they determine necessary. This ensures that franchisees and their managers are adequately prepared and continuously updated on Kitchen Solvers' operational standards and practices.
