Training

Fulton Grace provides a robust training structure for franchisees to ensure successful operations and adherence to brand standards.

1. Initial Management Training: This is mandatory and must be completed to the franchisor’s satisfaction by the franchisee and their General Manager. The training is delivered both virtually and at the franchisor’s headquarters in Chicago, Illinois, and lasts approximately ten days.
2. Opening Assistance: Within the first six months of operation, Fulton Grace sends a trained representative to the franchisee’s location for up to four days to provide on-site support, supervision, and assistance during the business opening.
3. Additional and Annual Training: Fulton Grace may require attendance at mandatory additional training sessions or an annual convention for up to ten days per year. These trainings are subject to fees, and the franchisee must cover all related travel and accommodation expenses.
4. Remedial and On-Site Training: Upon request or as deemed necessary by the franchisor, on-site remedial training can be provided. The franchisee must pay a per diem fee for this service, in addition to all travel-related costs for the trainer.

Territory Protection

Fulton Grace grants franchisees a protected territory defined by a radius of 1 to 5 miles and containing at least 100,000 people. This territory is assigned after the franchisor approves the site for the franchised business.

During the agreement term, and provided the franchisee is not in default, Fulton Grace agrees not to establish or authorize another franchise within that territory using the same brand.

However, the protection is not exclusive in all respects. Fulton Grace reserves the right to open or authorize additional franchises bordering or adjacent to the assigned territory. Franchisees may still face competition from company-owned outlets, other franchisees, or different distribution channels controlled by the franchisor.
