SBA Franchise Registry Activity for June
9 New Listing and 39 Renewals
Arlington,VA - The SBA Franchise Registry (www.franchiseregistry.com)
saw a large number of renewal and new applications in June. The
Franchise Registry is the online listing of franchise systems whose
franchisees receive expedited loan processing when applying for
financial assistance from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA).
"The Franchise Registry process authorizes all SBA District
offices to accept a single nationwide review of the franchise
agreements that franchisees will sign," said Darrell Johnson,
CEO of FRANdata. "Because many franchisors update their franchise
agreements in the spring of each year, there is a corresponding
busy season for the Franchise Registry during the early summer."
ABOUT THE FRANCHISE REGISTRY
The Franchise Registry is a national online listing of franchise
systems whose franchisees receive expedited loan processing when
applying for financial assistance from the U.S. Small Business
Administration (SBA). By centralizing the review process, the
Franchise Registry allows the SBA to make consistent eligibility
decisions regarding franchise systems, to cut red tape in the system,
and to speed access to SBA financial assistance. Administered by
FRANdata, the Franchise Registry is a successful partnership between
the SBA, Franchise Lenders, Franchisors, and Franchisees.
Lenders who wish to learn more about the SBA Franchise Registry
should contact the SBA (Sandy Lear sandy.lear@sba.gov). Franchisors
who wish to be listed on the Registry should contact FRANdata at
sbaregistry@frandata.com. Franchisees who wish to see which franchise
systems make their SBA-guaranteed financing as easy as possible should
visit www.franchiseregistry.com/registry.
