Training 

Prospective Round Table Pizza franchisees must complete a comprehensive training program before launching their restaurant. This program is meticulously crafted to provide them with the essential skills and knowledge required for successful restaurant management.

The training encompasses various facets of restaurant operations, including effective operational techniques, proper equipment usage, training on computer software and hardware, and adherence to the brand's operational standards.

Beyond the initial training, Round Table Pizza places a strong emphasis on continuous education. Franchisees may need to participate in additional training sessions based on their previous experience in the restaurant industry.

These ongoing sessions cover a wide array of topics such as operations, orientation, crew training, product preparation, dough room procedures, shift management, and sales strategies.

Territory Protection

Franchisees are granted a specific geographical area, known as the "Designated Territory," which encompasses a one (1) mile radius around the main entrance of their restaurant.

Throughout the duration of the Franchise Agreement, Round Table Pizza pledges not to establish, own, or license any third party to establish another restaurant within this Designated Territory, with the exception of certain "Non-Traditional Sites."

However, it's important to note that franchisees do not receive exclusive territory rights. They may encounter competition from other franchisees, company-owned outlets, or other distribution channels and competitive brands managed by Round Table Pizza.
