THE UPS STORE NON-TRADITIONAL franchise in North Dakota: what the public record shows

Franchisees of THE UPS STORE NON-TRADITIONAL in North Dakota have taken 6 SBA loans since 1991 (average $274,750)— 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 9 franchised outlets in North Dakota (fiscal 2025) — about 1.13 per 100k residents.
