Training

ChopValue provides a structured training framework to equip franchisees and their teams for successful operations. Here are the training programs offered by the franchisor:

1. Initial Management Training
   Franchisees must ensure that both the Community Builder and the Lead Production Manager (if applicable) complete the initial management training program before the micro-factory opens. The training is typically conducted in Vancouver, British Columbia, and may include online components. The Community Builder requires at least two days of in-person training, while the Lead Production Manager requires at least three days.
2. Opening Assistance
   The franchisor offers a minimum of five days of on-site training and support before and during the micro-factory opening. Two members of the production management team provide this hands-on assistance to help ensure a smooth launch.
3. Remedial Training
   If deemed necessary by the franchisor or requested by the franchisee, remedial on-site training can be provided. This is subject to the availability of franchisor personnel and may involve per diem fees and reimbursement of travel and lodging costs.

Territory Protection

ChopValue does not grant exclusive territorial rights to its franchisees. Each franchisee operates within a non-exclusive Designated Area, which may overlap with other franchisees, company-owned outlets, or other distribution channels.

The franchisor can reduce or divide a franchisee’s Service Area at any time. If divided, the franchisee retains the area with their Micro-Factory and may be offered the additional area, subject to signing a new agreement and being in good standing.
