Frequently Asked Questions
Is Saladworks growing or shrinking?
Saladworks's SBA loan count fell 83% 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 Saladworks 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 $483K (15% 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 Saladworks?
0 of 30 SBA loans to Saladworks franchisees (0.0%) have been charged off since FY2020, compared to 1.3% across all Restaurants & Food brands.
