SBA Franchise Directory

The list of franchise brands SBA has reviewed and found eligible. If your brand isn't listed, the loan generally can't proceed until it is.

Why it matters to you

Check this before you sign a franchise agreement, not after. Getting a brand added takes time you won't have once you're under contract, and franchisors don't always mention that they've dropped off.
