Arby's provides a comprehensive training program to ensure franchisees are thoroughly prepared to manage their franchises successfully. The training process is structured as follows:
Initially, every new franchisee, or an approved owner in the case of corporate or business entities, must attend the New Franchisee Orientation (NFO).
The NFO offers a concise introduction to the Arby’s Restaurant system and the corporate support services available. This orientation typically occurs quarterly at the Arby’s Support Center, though the schedule may adjust based on demand.
After the orientation, franchisees proceed to the more extensive Arby’s Restaurant Management Training Program (MTP), held in one of the Nationally Certified Training Restaurants (NCTR) nationwide.
This 7-week operational training program is meticulously designed to provide franchisees and their teams with the essential skills and knowledge required to operate the restaurant effectively.
Franchisees are given the right to operate an Arby’s Restaurant within a designated "Protected Area." Within this area, they must develop and manage their franchised restaurants. However, these territorial rights do not guarantee exclusivity.
Franchisees should be aware that they might encounter competition from other franchisees or different distribution channels in the future. The License Agreement does not offer options, rights of first refusal, or similar privileges for acquiring additional franchises within the Protected Area or neighboring regions.
Moreover, the continuation of territorial rights under the License Agreement is not contingent upon reaching specific sales targets, market penetration, or other conditions.
