What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Pearce Bespoke's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, all active Pearce Bespoke clothiers are required to attend the Annual Certification Training. The training may be held online or in person at a location designated by Pearce Bespoke.
The cost for the Annual Certification Training is $199 per session, and Pearce Bespoke anticipates that recertification will be held monthly at the same cost. This means a franchisee could potentially pay $199 per month for recertification, in addition to the annual training fee.
Franchisees should factor in the cost of this training, as well as any potential travel expenses if the training is held in person. It is important to note that the FDD states the training is required for all 'active clothiers,' so prospective franchisees should clarify with Pearce Bespoke what constitutes an 'active clothier' and whether there are any exceptions to this requirement.
