How locations work
Each location that you create in Fresha represents a physical place where your business operates. If your business has multiple locations, you can set each one up separately so that schedules, team members, services, reports, and product sales are managed independently for each location.
You can create and manage all your locations in one place, giving you full control over how your business operates.
