Pita Pit does not loan to franchisees, however, we may be able to help you in the financing process with your bank. To be considered for a Pita Pit franchise you will most likely need a net worth of approximately $100,000, of which $75,000 will most likely need to be in the form of a liquid investment or holding account. SBA applicants will probably need to inject 20% to 30% cash into their loan to promote immediate cash flow, and reduce monthly expenses. While this may be the bank’s typical minimum threshold, they may make exceptions to this requirement under special circumstances, or for those individuals who are close to the minimum requirements. Pita Pit is listed on the SBA Registry and has a Bank Credit Report (BCR). Our Franchise Development Team can discuss various options for financing, as well as help your local banker better understand Pita Pit franchising.
