Famous for its "31 flavors" slogan, Baskin-Robbins suggests customers can savor a different flavor every day of the month, solidifying its reputation in the ice cream market.

Baskin-Robbins offers a thorough training program designed to ensure franchisees are fully equipped to manage their stores efficiently. Here’s an overview of the training process:
For franchisees aiming to own and operate multiple stores, it is mandatory to oversee their network with a team of individuals who have successfully completed the training program.
Franchisees opening or acquiring a Combo Restaurant must fulfill the training requirements for both brands prior to launching the restaurant. It is crucial for franchisees and their restaurant managers to be proficient in English to successfully complete the training program.
The "Brand Training" program is mandatory for franchisees, their management team, and their staff. This includes "The Center," an online training platform that covers brand communications, operational guidelines, equipment programming, and marketing preparedness.
Franchisees are given the right to operate a single Restaurant at a designated location as specified in the Franchise Agreement (FA) or its exhibits, and this right is limited to that specific location. They will not receive additional rights, a minimum territory, or any other protected rights.
Additionally, franchisees are restricted from distributing products outside of their Restaurant, including through alternative distribution channels. Baskin-Robbins employs alternative distribution channels for its products and trademarks and may expand its product sales on a local, regional, national, or international scale.
