What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Ledgers' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Ledgers may choose to offer central processing to help franchisees run their businesses. This means Ledgers has the option, but not the obligation, to provide services that handle certain business processes centrally, potentially streamlining operations for franchisees.
Central processing services are also mentioned in the context of initial training. The training program includes two hours of classroom instruction on central processing services.
While the FDD indicates that Ledgers might offer central processing, it does not specify the exact nature, scope, or cost of these services. Prospective franchisees should inquire with Ledgers about what central processing services might be offered, what benefits they provide, and what costs are associated with them to fully understand this aspect of the franchise support.
