Training

Territory
Licensees do not receive exclusive territory, the license grants operating rights at one specific Licensed Site only. Chick-fil-A retains the right to establish other locations within and outside the trading area, but will not operate at the exact same Licensed Site.
Support
Chick-fil-A provides electronic access to operations and training manuals and offers informal operational advice. Licensees must use diligent efforts at their own cost to promote consumer awareness using only Chick-fil-A-approved materials. Optional seminars and conferences are offered periodically.
