Announcements

Dear Franchisees,

On June 26th, 2024, at 1 am US Central Time, our IT Support Team will perform a firmware update for our Teapioca routers and switches at all locations. This firmware update is part of our regular maintenance routine and includes patches and fixes for network issues.

During the update, the POS (Point of Sale) system will be disconnected for a short period. However, the POS should reconnect and operate normally afterward. All of this will occur outside of business hours, so there should not be any impact on store operations. If you experience any POS or networking issues during business hours after the update, please contact our IT support at support.it@teapiocalounge.com.

Thank you very much.

Dear Franchisees,

As we continuously strive to optimize our menu, inventory, and enhance the customer experience, we’re announcing more reductions for our product offering. This decision allows us to focus our resources on higher-performing items and streamline inventory management.

We don’t have a specific full-stop end date for these products just yet, but we’ll continuously monitor inventory levels and communicate the final removal date in due time. Our vendor may potentially offer future discounts on some of these products, so continue to check back on the TeaVerse website.

To ensure everyone is informed of the attached list, please confirm that you have received this message by REACTING below. This will help us track who has been notified.

Please read the full announcement, including the list of products on the Knowledge Base – 2024 Phase Out Products – Teapioca Franchise (teapiocaintl.com)

Dear Franchisees,

While we highly encourage and appreciate your efforts for local marketing endeavors, please be reminded that all local marketing materials and events must be approved by TPI. This approval process is essential for ensuring that all uses of our logos, branding elements, and messaging are consistent with our established guidelines. Additionally, this process protects both you and your business from any potential legal issues that may arise from unauthorized use of branding materials.

Dear Franchisees,

Due to a change in the Law regarding Non-Competition Agreements, please find attached a new Sample Non-Solicit and Non-Disclosure Agreement for the Franchise System. We have updated our Operations Manuals to include this Agreement. It is located near the bottom of Section 2 of the Operations Manuals, you may download the Manual in Onehub here: Operations Manuals V3.0.0 – Files – TEAPIOCA-COMMON – Onehub

In order to be in compliance with the new law, it is required that every Franchisee, as well as every staff member working for your Franchise, must read and sign the agreement. Blank spaces are provided for each recipient to fill out. Additionally, Franchisees should replace the address at the bottom with their respective Franchised Business address when their employees fill out the agreement.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
We would appreciate your urgency on this matter so we can be in compliance with the law, thank you all!…
