Frequently Asked Questions
Is Crave Cookies growing or shrinking?
Crave Cookies's SBA loan count fell 40% year-over-year. A decline in SBA financing doesn't necessarily mean the brand is shrinking -- franchisees may be using other financing, or SBA lending patterns may have shifted broadly.
How much does it cost to open a Crave Cookies 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 $346K (13% above the typical Other brand's $306K) is a rough proxy, but SBA loans often cover only part of total investment.
What's the SBA loan default rate for Crave Cookies?
Crave Cookies only has 13 SBA loans on record -- too few to calculate a meaningful charge-off rate on its own. For context, Other brands overall see a 2.1% charge-off rate across 1,541 loans.
