KID TO KID franchise in Pennsylvania: what the public record shows
Franchisees of KID TO KID in Pennsylvania have taken 6 SBA loans since 1991 (average $288,166)— 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 19.1% is the better guide.
