Funding franchisees

How PIRS funds franchisees.

Franchise operators run on two clocks: the unit's revenue cycle and the franchisor's requirements calendar. Required remodels, image refreshes, and equipment upgrades arrive on a timeline you didn't pick, and missing them isn't optional.

PIRS structures around both. We're familiar with franchisor requirement cycles, multi-unit revenue concentration, and the cash rhythm between royalty payments and supplier invoices. Funding is sized to the unit count and the work the franchisor needs done.

The franchisor sets the deadline, we set the timing. We fund the working-capital gap in between.

Common use cases

What franchisees operators actually use working capital for.

Drawn from real PIRS-funded files across the category.

Franchisor-required remodels & image refreshes

Fund mandated remodels, signage updates, and equipment upgrades on the timeline the franchisor has set.

New unit openings & multi-unit expansion

Capital for build-outs, training, FF&E, and pre-opening marketing for additional locations within your system.

Working capital between royalty cycles

Cover the gap between royalty payments, supplier invoices, and weekly deposits.

Grand-opening & re-opening marketing

Drive traffic to new units or freshly remodeled locations with paid acquisition and local-market campaigns.

Hiring & training before peak seasons

Onboard staff ahead of summer, holiday, or back-to-school ramps so the unit isn't understaffed when it matters.

Buyouts of additional units in the system

Acquire neighboring units from a retiring operator or scale into adjacent territories within the same brand.

Why PIRS

Why franchisees operators choose PIRS.

Underwriting tuned to how your category actually earns, not a generic credit box.

Familiar with franchisor timelines

Required remodels are time-sensitive. We structure approvals and disbursement around the deadlines the franchisor has imposed.

Sized to multi-unit concentration

Structures account for revenue spread across multiple units. Concentration risk is something we plan around, not something that disqualifies you.

Subordination flexibility

Existing SBA loans, equipment financing, or a prior advance don't auto-decline a strong file. We structure around your stack.

Renewal-friendly for repeat expansion

Most franchisees come back. Renewal capital is structured around your expansion roadmap, not a hard reset.

A note on eligibility

A few sub-segments aren't eligible.

We say no up front. It saves everyone time.

  • Gas-station franchises (e.g., 7-Eleven, Sunoco) are not eligible.
  • Convenience-store franchises are not eligible.
  • Supermarket-format franchises are not eligible.
  • Motor-vehicle-sales franchises are not eligible.

Questions we hear most

Franchises: what operators ask first.

Can a franchisee use working capital for a required remodel?
Yes. Franchisor-mandated remodels and equipment upgrades are one of the most common use cases. We can structure repayment around the timeline the franchisor has imposed.
Do you fund multi-unit franchisees?
Yes. We work with single-unit operators and multi-unit franchisees alike, including operators expanding into additional units within the same system.
Which franchise categories are excluded?
Gas-station, convenience-store, and supermarket-format franchises are not eligible per our underwriting guidelines. Most other franchise categories are eligible, including QSR, full-service restaurants, fitness, retail concepts, and services.
I have an SBA loan. Can I still get working capital?
Often, yes. We can write subordinate structures alongside SBA debt. Bring the existing paperwork to the call, and we'll size around it.
Can I use the funds to open a new unit?
Yes. New-unit build-out, FF&E, training, and pre-opening marketing are common uses. We size deals to your existing unit's trailing revenue and the franchisor's build timeline.
