22 SBA loans have financed Bab Systems locations since 1998, written by 17 different lenders across 13 states. Half were approved for $211K or less, the mix is almost entirely 7(a), and 55% went to owners whose business was under two years old.
A lender that has already underwritten this brand knows the unit economics, the build-out costs, and the franchisor. That is worth more to you than a bigger bank starting from scratch.
