Fairfield Inn franchise in New Jersey: what the public record shows
Franchisees of Fairfield Inn in New Jersey have taken 6 SBA loans since 1991 (average $2,781,500)— 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 1.1% is the better guide.
