Loan to Buy Quiznos Franchise Issued By California Bank & Trust

Borrowing money to invest in a Quiznos franchise? California Bank & Trust has a history of making these loans and they are guaranteed by the SBA.

Getting money to buy a Quiznos franchise is doable. In 2003, California Bank & Trust issued an SBA franchise loan to an entrepreneur in Lancaster, California. Because Quiznos was registered with the SBA's registry of franchises, this California small business loan was issued on an expedited basis.

More Information on This SBA Loan

The borrower borrowed this money for a new business. This loan was used to buy a Quiznos franchise. At the time of the loan, the company had only one employee. The loan application indicated that the loan would help generate 10 new jobs and retain 10 existing jobs.

Next Steps for Getting an SBA Loan

SBA loans can help growing businesses purchase or renovate real estate, acquire fixed assets such as heavy machinery or specialized equipment, borrow working capital for ongoing financing needs, or fund the acquisition of new businesses.

SBA loan guarantees are not loans per se. The SBA simply guarantees the loan, but banks and other lending institutions grant you the loan and give you the money. So, just as this company walked into California Bank & Trust and applied for an SBA loan, you have to do the same thing. You need to demonstrate business strength and potential, but the sooner you start, the faster you'll get the money if you qualify!
