 Hi, while SBA does not provide grants, we do provide a way for you to search for different resources and opportunities for finding small business funding at http://www.sba.gov/category/navigation-structure/loans-grants . On this page, you will also find information on SBA loan programs. You can also visit our page on franchising at http://www.sba.gov/category/navigation-structure/starting-managing-business/starting-business/establishing-business/buying-franchise/ .

Unfortunately, grants are not generally available to businesses engaged in for-profit activities, which includes most franchises. Have you checked to find out if the franchisor offers any financial assistance? If not, your best bet is to seek a loan.
