Jamba provides a comprehensive training program for its franchisees and their staff to ensure they are fully equipped to run their stores successfully. Here’s an overview of the training process:
Initial Training:
Before the grand opening, franchisees must ensure their trainees complete the Management Training Program. This crucial program is designed for individuals involved in the daily operations of the franchise. The Management Training Program can be completed online or in person at Jamba’s corporate headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, at a certified training store, or other approved locations. Trainees are eligible to attend the program once the Jamba store is under construction, and the franchisee has submitted a fully signed and approved lease and proof of the required insurance.
Franchisees do not receive an exclusive territory and may encounter competition from other franchisees, Jamba-owned outlets, or other distribution channels and competitive brands controlled by Jamba.
For those operating a Traditional Store, although exclusive territory is not granted, franchisees will receive a territory with limited protection (an "Area of Protection").
This means that during the term of the Franchise Agreement, Jamba will not establish or operate, nor will it license anyone else to establish or operate, a store under the Proprietary Marks and the System within the Area of Protection, except in Non-Traditional Locations, Delivery Kitchens, and as specified in the Franchise Agreement.
