Administration | 2024 Phase Out Products

Dear Franchisees,

One of our main themes for 2024 will be to make our products and inventory move. Based on your feedback that there are products that take longer to sell than others which leads to expiration as well as products simply not being as popular as others, we plan to begin phasing out and discontinuing some products.

In May of 2024, these products will be discontinued from our menu:

Pear
Cinnamon
Turmeric
Yogurt Bursters
Carrot Juice

REMINDER – No Durian SNOWYN(we are keeping Durian Smoothies, but do not make the Durian Snowyns. You should already have the updated menus with Durian Snowyn removed.)

Administration | Holiday Hours

Dear Franchisees,

With the December holidays coming up, we understand your stores may close early, or completely, for holidays and or staff events.

As a reminder, there is a folder in OneHub with templates for you to download, print, and fill out for holiday hours as well as other scenarios you may need to adjust your store hours for.
Please find that folder here – https://ws.onehub.com/workspaces/1153683/folders/2564159392

Should you require personalized holiday hours signs or assistance from our team at TPI to temporarily disable your Online Order for specific days, we kindly request you to submit a Naranga ticket by Friday, December 15th. This will allow us ample time to ensure a seamless transition for your store.

If you do not need assistance, please remember to turn your online order off when you close and back on when re-open.

Thank you all and Happy Holidays!…
