It includes approximately 40 hours per week over two weeks, covering topics such as food preparation, portion control, cooking, packaging, system standards, marketing, customer service, and equipment maintenance. All attendees must complete required government certifications (e.g., ServSafe) and bear their own travel and lodging costs.

Subjects may include product production, recipes, marketing, accounting, and information systems. Franchisees pay for travel and may incur registration fees.
Territory Protection
Jeff’s Bagel Run offers its franchisees a “Protected Trade Area” around each approved store, generally defined as a one-mile radius in urban areas or a three-mile radius in suburban locations. This area is meant to shield the franchisee from direct competition by restricting the franchisor or its affiliates from opening another traditional store within it.
The boundaries may also be set by map, natural borders, or demographics ensuring a minimum population of 50,000 in the designated territory.
Despite this protection, Jeff’s Bagel Run does not provide exclusive territories. The franchisor reserves broad rights to operate or authorize operations at non-traditional venues (e.g., airports, stadiums) and may establish stores or other concepts under different brand names anywhere.
