What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Marble Slab Creamery FDD, on-the-job training for 'Cleaning and preventative maintenance' is conducted at a Certified Training Store located in Greater Atlanta, GA, or at another location. Franchisees will receive 0.25 hours of online learning and 4.5 hours of on-the-job training in this area.
This means that new Marble Slab Creamery franchisees, or their designated managers, will travel to the designated training location to learn the proper cleaning and maintenance procedures for the store. The 'other location' provision provides some flexibility, but franchisees should confirm the exact training location with Marble Slab Creamery prior to attending.
It is important to note that while Marble Slab Creamery provides instructors, the franchisee is responsible for covering the costs of transportation, lodging, food, and wages for themselves and any other trainees attending the program. This can add a significant expense to the initial investment, depending on the distance to the training location and the duration of the stay.
