Frequently Asked Questions
Is Scenthound growing or shrinking?
Scenthound's SBA loan count fell 8% year-over-year. A decline in SBA financing doesn't necessarily mean the brand is shrinking -- franchisees may be using other financing, or SBA lending patterns may have shifted broadly.
How much does it cost to open a Scenthound 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 $344K (94% above the typical Home & Repair Services brand's $177K) is a rough proxy, but SBA loans often cover only part of total investment.
What's the SBA loan default rate for Scenthound?
0 of 104 SBA loans to Scenthound franchisees (0.0%) have been charged off since FY2020, compared to 2.9% across all Home & Repair Services brands.
