Crave Cookies offers a structured and multi-tiered training program to prepare franchisees for successful operation. Below are the main programs outlined:
Crave Cookies offers its franchisees a protected territory, meaning the franchisor will not open or authorize another franchise or company-owned location selling similar goods under the Crave Cookies brand within that territory. This applies unless the site falls under "limited access venues," which are locations like stadiums, universities, or airports where general public access is restricted.
However, even within protected territories, the franchisor reserves the right to use other distribution channels, such as internet sales or partnerships with different brands, which may still affect the franchisee's market presence.
