Frequently Asked Questions

Is I Heart Mac & Cheese growing or shrinking?

I Heart Mac & Cheese doesn't have enough SBA loan activity in both FY2023 and FY2024 to calculate a reliable year-over-year trend. For context, it ranks #70 of 1,075 Restaurants & Food brands by total SBA loan count since FY2020 -- a snapshot of scale, if not of trend.

How much does it cost to open a I Heart Mac & Cheese 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 $342K (18% below the typical Restaurants & Food brand's $419K) is a rough proxy, but SBA loans often cover only part of total investment.

4 of 34 SBA loans to I Heart Mac & Cheese franchisees (11.8%) have been charged off since FY2020, compared to 1.3% across all Restaurants & Food brands.
