Frequently Asked Questions

Is City Publications growing or shrinking?

City Publications doesn't have enough SBA loan activity in both FY2023 and FY2024 to calculate a reliable year-over-year trend. For context, it ranks #148 of 241 Business & Professional Services brands by total SBA loan count since FY2020 -- a snapshot of scale, if not of trend.

How much does it cost to open a City Publications franchise?

We don't have that figure -- investment ranges and fees come from a franchisor's Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), which this site doesn't parse (see methodology). The average SBA loan size of $300K (20% above the typical Business & Professional Services brand's $250K) is a rough proxy, but SBA loans often cover only part of total investment.

What's the SBA loan default rate for City Publications?

City Publications only has 2 SBA loans on record -- too few to calculate a meaningful charge-off rate on its own. For context, Business & Professional Services brands overall see a 2.1% charge-off rate across 2,936 loans.
