Number of units
Joshua Tree had 2 total units in 2024, of which 1 were franchised-owned and 1 company-owned.
The franchise Joshua Tree Experts offers a structured and multi-phase training program designed to ensure franchisees operate according to its standards.
Initial Training Program: The Managing Owner and a designated manager must complete this program within 45 days of the scheduled or actual opening date. The program includes classroom and on-the-job training, which may occur at a designated facility or remotely. The franchisor also provides in-market sales and client support for one week before and after the business opening.
Ongoing Training: After the initial training, the franchisee is responsible for continuing the training of staff and employees, ensuring it aligns with the franchisor’s evolving standards.
Refresher and System-Wide Training: Franchisees, including the Managing Owner and Manager, are required to attend refresher courses or system-wide training sessions as periodically designated by the franchisor.
Supplemental Training: Subject to approval, supplemental training may be provided within the franchisee's operating territory or remotely. This training is typically required if operational standards are not being met or when new operating managers are hired. There is a fee of $500 per trainer per day plus associated travel and accommodation costs.
Territory Protection
Joshua Tree Experts grants franchisees a defined operating territory but does not provide exclusive territorial rights. Franchisees may face competition from other franchisees, company-owned outlets, or alternative distribution channels within or near their territory.
The franchisor retains the right to expand and operate outside the franchisee’s designated area at its discretion. While the franchisor agrees not to open another Joshua Tree Experts location within a franchisee’s territory if the franchisee is in good standing, this protection is limited.
Franchisees may serve customers only within their designated area, with restricted permissions for out-of-territory service. The overall territorial arrangement allows the franchisor significant flexibility while giving franchisees clear but non-exclusive operating boundaries.
