Batteries Plus Franchise Financing Program
Franchise Financing Options:
Franchise Financing Lenders
Batteries Plus has well-established relationships with franchise finance lenders that provide the help new business owners need when getting a loan to open a franchise. The lenders on our list are already familiar with our business model, making the process a lot smoother.
Small Business Administration (SBA) Lenders
The SBA is an excellent resource for learning more about franchise loan requirements. We have been an SBA-approved business since 2008; find us on the SBA registry at www.sba.gov.
Convertible Loans
If you own real estate that has appreciated, you can tap into your home equity to help you get a business loan to open a franchise. A home equity loan is often easier to obtain than a franchise loan and could carry a lower interest rate.
Partnerships
Entrepreneurs sometimes go into business together, combining their financial resources and skill-sets. This approach can make it easier getting a loan to open a franchise.
