The lenders above have actually closed SBA 7(a) loans for American Deli franchisees, so they already understand the brand's model, unit economics, and franchise agreement. That familiarity usually means a faster, cleaner underwrite than a lender seeing the concept for the first time.
A lender being active historically doesn't mean they're the right fit for your deal size, location, or timing right now. That's where we come in — we match your American Deli deal to a lender currently funding this brand.
