What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Ledgers' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, on-site training is available at the franchisee's request and will cost $500 per half day per person, plus any travel expenses incurred by Ledgers. This fee is due as incurred, meaning the franchisee will need to pay it as the training sessions take place and the expenses are accrued.
This on-site training fee is in addition to the initial training that Ledgers provides to new franchisees. The FDD does not specify the details of the initial training program, but this additional on-site training is available if the franchisee requires further assistance or training at their specific location. The cost covers the trainer's time and any travel-related costs to get them to the franchisee's business.
Franchisees should consider this potential expense when budgeting for their ongoing operational costs. If they anticipate needing extra support or specialized training for themselves or their staff, they should factor in the $500 per half day per person fee, as well as potential travel expenses. It is advisable to discuss with Ledgers what situations might warrant on-site training and to get an estimate of typical travel costs from the franchisor's location to the franchisee's location to better prepare for this potential expense.
