Training 

DonutNV ensures that new franchisees are thoroughly equipped to run their franchise successfully through its comprehensive training program.

Pre-Opening Training

DonutNV provides an extensive pre-opening training program for the Principal Executive and one additional employee. This training, conducted at DonutNV Franchising's headquarters or a designated location, is offered at no cost for the first two participants.

For additional attendees, a fee of $500 per person is required. Franchisees are responsible for all travel, lodging, and related expenses. The training's length and content are customized to match the participants' experience and skill levels, ensuring they receive the most relevant and practical instruction.

Post-Opening Training

Once the franchise is operational, DonutNV Franchising may mandate further training for the Principal Executive and/or other employees. These additional training sessions can be in various formats and locations, as specified by the franchisor, and may involve a reasonable fee.

The goal is to provide ongoing education and updates, ensuring that franchisees and their staff stay proficient in operational standards and industry practices.

Territory Protection

The DonutNV Franchise Disclosure Document specifies the terms of territory protection for franchisees. Each franchisee is granted a protected territory, where they are expected to focus their customer service and event operations.

Franchisees may operate outside their designated territories under specific conditions. They must not actively solicit or market for events outside their territories, must avoid serving customers or events within another DonutNV business's territory, and must ensure that no more than 10% of their annual revenue comes from outside their designated territories.

Should a franchisee exceed this 10% revenue threshold, DonutNV Franchising may require them to adjust their operations to comply with these limits or mandate the purchase of additional territory.
