How to Finance Your Pretzelmaker Franchise
Step #1 Sign the Franchise Agreements
- A Franchise Agreement is a legal, binding contract between a franchisor and franchisee. It overall provides the investor with a product, a branded name and recognition, and a support system.
- A franchise agreement will be required to get approval for funding as well as securing a location in most cases.
Step #2 Finding a Location
- Start scouting out potential locations in your development area.
- Don't be afraid to ask us for assistance. We have a real estate team that will assist you in identifying potential locations.
- We look for locations with high foot traffic such as; malls, lifestyle centers, among other areas.
Step #3 Understanding Costs
- Once a location is found, it's important to determine total costs.
- Total costs include; franchise fees, equipment, construction, architecture design, permitting, rent, etc.
- Working capital will be a percentage of the total cost.

Step #4 Methods to Finance a Franchise
- Cash
- 401k Rollover
- Conventional Loan
- Leasing
- Lending Networks
- SBA Loans
Cash
Using your personal money could lead to debt-free ownership. We see our franchises cost $154,500 - $237,750. If you wish to open multiple stores, make sure to leave yourself enough working capital.
401k Rollover
In some cases, you may be able to use your 401k to finance your franchise. There are several requirements to using your 401k. One rule is that you may no longer work for the company where your 401k is housed.
Conventional Loan
Conventional loans are common in franchising. Lenders look for real estate collateral used to mitigate risk. Terms are generally 5-10 years.
Leasing
Some banks will allow equipment leasing, but you will still need the funding for the building cost and other fees.
Lending Networks
Entire lending networks exist to help franchisees find financing. A quick Google Search will display hundreds of vendors.
SBA Loans
SBA loans are the most common loan types we see. They mitigate risk for lenders by offering a guarantee up to 80% of the loan amount.

In the early fifth century, when some monks were busy inventing Shaolin Kung Fu, German monks took a vow of deliciousness and invented the pretzel. Believe it or not, they were made to mimic arms folded in prayer and used to reward small children for good deeds. Even back then, they were a hit. Flash forward a couple of centuries. That's when we later came along and elevated the Pretzel to new dimensions of tastiness. Then came the pretzel business...
