Our recent post 15 Worst Franchises by SBA Loan Defaults listed the franchise concepts with the highest rate of SBA loan defaults for 2008.
Noble Roman’s Pizza franchise was listed as the worst. According to Katie Adams of Investopedia:
1. Noble Roman’s Pizza
Billing itself as “The Better Pizza People,” this Indianapolis-based franchiser has had a tough time selling that proposition to customers.
