Piggly Wiggly franchise in Missouri: what the public record shows
Franchisees of Piggly Wiggly in Missouri have taken 5 SBA loans since 1991 (average $411,800)— 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 13.6% is the better guide.
