17 SBA loans have financed Puro locations since 2005, written by 16 different lenders across 12 states. Half were approved for $50K or less, the mix is a mix of 7(a) and 504, and 59% 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.
