CRUMBL franchise in Delaware: what the public record shows
Franchisees of CRUMBL in Delaware have taken 5 SBA loans since 1991 (average $251,000)— 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 0.0% is the better guide. Its latest FDD Item 20 state table reports 3 franchised outlets in Delaware (fiscal 2025) — about 0.29 per 100k residents.

Same sector, same state, same public records — how CRUMBL compares to the systems a buyer in Delaware would actually be choosing between. Local rates under 10 resolved loans are marked thin, not hidden.
A broker is paid by the franchisor to place you. I'm paid by you — and the job is pressure-testing CRUMBL's numbers, including talking you out of a bad deal.
