How to use this
The lenders above have actually closed SBA 7(a) loans for Great Clips 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 Great Clips deal to a lender currently funding this brand.
