QUALITY INN franchise in Utah: what the public record shows

Franchisees of QUALITY INN in Utah have taken 11 SBA loans since 1991 (average $1,537,027)— 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 9.0% is the better guide. Its latest FDD Item 20 state table reports 22 franchised outlets in Utah (fiscal 2025) — about 0.63 per 100k residents.
