Burn Boot Camp Fitness franchise in Pennsylvania: what the public record shows
Franchisees of Burn Boot Camp Fitness in Pennsylvania have taken 12 SBA loans since 1991 (average $236,750)— too few resolved loans in-state to publish a local failure rate (we require a resolved cohort, never extrapolate), so the brand's national rate of 2.0% is the better guide.

Every business in Burn Boot Camp Fitness's industry operating in Pennsylvania — franchised and independent — from the Census Bureau's County Business Patterns (2023), against 2024 population estimates. Counter-intuitively, density is not a warning: across 198 brand-state cells in our loan data, the densest quartile charges off at 5.6% versus 18.1% in the thinnest. A crowded market is usually proven demand; an empty one is often empty for a reason.
