Motel 6 franchise in Missouri: what the public record shows

Franchisees of Motel 6 in Missouri have taken 10 SBA loans since 1991 (average $1,647,010)— 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 4.6% is the better guide.
