Frequently Asked Questions

Is Matco Tools growing or shrinking?

Matco Tools doesn't have enough SBA loan activity in both FY2025 and FY2026 to calculate a reliable year-over-year trend. For context, it ranks #20 of 125 Automotive 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 Matco Tools 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 $122K (73% below the typical Automotive Services brand's $453K) is a rough proxy, but SBA loans often cover only part of total investment.

What's the SBA loan default rate for Matco Tools?

Matco Tools only has 19 SBA loans on record -- too few to calculate a meaningful charge-off rate on its own. For context, Automotive Services brands overall see a 1.5% charge-off rate across 1,424 loans.
