Frequently Asked Questions

Is Big Chicken growing or shrinking?

Big Chicken doesn't have enough SBA loan activity in both FY2025 and FY2026 to calculate a reliable year-over-year trend. For context, it ranks #199 of 1,075 Restaurants & Food brands by total SBA loan count since FY2020 -- a snapshot of scale, if not of trend.

How much does it cost to open a Big Chicken franchise?

We don't have that figure -- investment ranges and fees come from a franchisor's Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), which this site doesn't parse (see methodology). The average SBA loan size of $739K (76% above the typical Restaurants & Food brand's $419K) is a rough proxy, but SBA loans often cover only part of total investment.

What's the SBA loan default rate for Big Chicken?

Big Chicken only has 11 SBA loans on record -- too few to calculate a meaningful charge-off rate on its own. For context, Restaurants & Food brands overall see a 1.3% charge-off rate across 11,372 loans.
