Frequently Asked Questions
Is Meineke Car Care Center growing or shrinking?
Meineke Car Care Center's SBA loan count fell 50% 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 Meineke Car Care Center 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 $609K (34% above the typical Automotive Services brand's $453K) is a rough proxy, but SBA loans often cover only part of total investment.
What's the SBA loan default rate for Meineke Car Care Center?
4 of 101 SBA loans to Meineke Car Care Center franchisees (4.0%) have been charged off since FY2020, compared to 1.5% across all Automotive Services brands.
