What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Spray Net's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Remedial Training may be required of a franchisee under specific circumstances. Spray Net may require a franchisee and their personnel to attend up to five days of remedial training if they fail to sufficiently complete the initial training program or any additional training required by Spray Net. Remedial Training may also be required if the franchisee fails to operate the franchised business according to the terms of the Franchise Agreement, after receiving written notice of such failure from Spray Net.
Spray Net reserves the right to charge its then-current Additional Training Fee, plus lodging and travel expenses, for any Remedial Training provided to the franchisee or their personnel at any location. If the Remedial Training is provided at a location other than Spray Net's headquarters, the franchisee must cover the costs and expenses incurred by Spray Net and its personnel in providing the training.
This means that a Spray Net franchisee could face additional costs for training if their initial training is deemed insufficient or if they are not operating the business according to the franchise agreement. The franchisee is responsible for covering the training fees, lodging, and travel expenses, especially if the training occurs outside of Spray Net's headquarters. This could represent a significant, unplanned expense for the franchisee, especially if multiple personnel require Remedial Training.
