The Supply Point franchise provides the following training programs:

Opening Assistance Up to 60 days post-opening, Supply Point provides an experienced representative to help familiarize the franchisee's staff with the business system techniques and offer guidance.
Ongoing Training Supply Point offers periodic mandatory training programs or seminars for the designated manager, free of charge, but the franchisee is responsible for travel and other associated costs.
Additional Training Upon request or deemed appropriate by Supply Point, virtual remedial training and assistance are provided. The franchisee must cover a per diem fee for the trainer and associated expenses.
Territory Protection
The Supply Point franchise does not offer exclusive territory protection to its franchisees. While the franchise assigns a designated market area containing a minimum of 750 target companies, this area is not exclusive. Franchisees may face competition from other franchisees, company-owned outlets, or distribution channels controlled by Supply Point.
However, Supply Point provides some safeguards within a franchisee's designated market area. For instance, the franchisor does not permit other franchisees to solicit industrial packaging sales within a franchisee's territory.
Despite these measures, the franchisor retains the right to sell products and services in any territory through alternative channels, such as online or catalog sales. This arrangement limits the level of territorial exclusivity.
