Amoco (Gas Station) franchise in Indiana: what the public record shows
Franchisees of Amoco (Gas Station) in Indiana have taken 6 SBA loans since 1991 (average $339,572)— too few resolved loans in-state to publish a local failure rate (we require a resolved cohort, never extrapolate), so the brand's national rate of 20.0% is the better guide.
