Training

Singas Famous provides a structured training program for franchisees to ensure proper operation of their franchised business. The training consists of the following key components:

Initial Training Program: This program lasts approximately ten days and is mandatory for the franchisee, the Operating Principal, and one manager. It covers essential operational aspects and must be completed three to four weeks before the opening of the franchise. Training is conducted at an affiliate-owned restaurant or a designated location.
Manager Training: For any subsequent franchises, training is provided to one manager at no cost. However, additional or supplemental training may incur a fee of $250 per person per day.
On-Site Training: At the franchisor's discretion, part of the initial training may be conducted at the franchisee's business location.
Supplemental and Periodic Training: Franchisees and their employees may be required to attend ongoing training sessions, either periodically scheduled or as needed. These sessions may include new operational techniques, employee management, or updates on products and services.

Territory Protection

Singas Famous does not guarantee exclusive territory protection to its franchisees. Each franchise agreement designates a specific territory for operations, which may be based on factors like population density, market demand, and geographic considerations.

However, the franchisor retains the right to open company-owned stores, grant additional franchises, or permit other outlets within or near the designated territory, as long as these do not directly solicit sales in the franchisee's specific area.

While franchisees have rights to operate and advertise within their territory, Singas Famous reserves the ability to conduct marketing efforts, accept orders, and fulfill deliveries that may overlap with the franchisee's territory.
