Tempur-Pedic provides a range of training programs designed to prepare franchisees for operating their retail outlets effectively. Here are the types of training provided by the Franchisor:
Initial Training Program Before opening, Tempur-Pedic requires franchisees and their managers to attend and complete an initial training program. This training includes comprehensive guidelines and specifications covering construction, build-out, installation, safety procedures, sales and marketing, customer service, and more. Franchisees are also granted access to the Operating Manual, which sets standards for management and operations.
Store Opening Support As part of the pre-opening assistance, franchisees receive a new store opening checklist and detailed guidance on acquiring inventory and fixtures. They are supported through site selection, store design approval, and set-up to ensure compliance with Tempur-Pedic's brand standards.
Post-Opening Ongoing Training and Support After the store is operational, Tempur-Pedic continues to offer general advisory assistance including periodic site visits. They provide knowledge and expertise to help improve business performance, updates to the Operating Manual, and newly approved supplier lists.
Annual or Biennial Franchise Conference Franchisees are invited to attend conferences held either annually or biennially. These events serve as educational platforms, offering networking opportunities and discussions on industry best practices and franchise operations.
Territory Protection
Tempur-Pedic grants franchisees a “Protected Area” but not an exclusive territory. This Protected Area is typically a radius of up to five miles around the franchise location, and within it, Tempur-Pedic agrees not to open or allow another franchise without the franchisee’s consent, provided they remain in compliance.
The size of the Protected Area depends on factors like population density and store format. While franchisees are restricted from selling or marketing outside this area, Tempur-Pedic and its affiliates may still sell through other channels, including online and authorized third-party retailers.
