Taco Pros provides a comprehensive training program to its franchisees to ensure the effective and consistent operation of its restaurants. Here are the key training components offered by the Franchisor:
Initial Training Program: This is a mandatory 4-week program conducted at the corporate headquarters or a designated location. It must be completed successfully by either the franchisee or their General Manager no later than 60 days before the restaurant begins operation. Up to three attendees are allowed at no extra charge, but the franchisee is responsible for their travel, lodging, meals, and wages.
Manager Experience Requirement: Prospective managers must have at least two years of restaurant experience, including one year in a management role, to qualify for the initial training program.
Opening Assistance: Taco Pros will send up to two trainers to the franchise location for approximately seven days to provide on-site pre-opening and opening training. The franchisee must cover the trainers’ per diem rates and related expenses.
Territory Protection
Taco Pros provides its franchisees with a form of territorial protection referred to as a “Protected Territory.” This is typically a designated radius around the franchisee's restaurant—up to one mile in suburban areas or two blocks in urban settings.
During the term of the Franchise Agreement, Taco Pros will not establish or authorize another Taco Pros restaurant within this Protected Territory, provided the franchisee complies fully with the agreement.
However, Taco Pros does not grant exclusive territories. The franchisor reserves the right to operate or license others to operate businesses under different trademarks, even within the Protected Territory.
