THE UPS STORE NON-TRADITIONAL franchise in Kentucky: what the public record shows
Franchisees of THE UPS STORE NON-TRADITIONAL in Kentucky have taken 17 SBA loans since 1991 (average $238,700)— 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 7.2% is the better guide. Its latest FDD Item 20 state table reports 52 franchised outlets in Kentucky (fiscal 2025) — about 1.13 per 100k residents.
