Frequently asked questions
What business loans are available to Liquor Store owners in Georgia?
Georgia liquor store owners can qualify through Manu for small business loans ($10K–$10M), SBA 7(a) and 504 loans ($50K–$5M), business lines of credit, equipment financing, merchant cash advances, accounts receivable financing, and inventory lines. We work with lenders licensed to fund in Georgia.
How fast can a Liquor Store business in Georgia get funded?
Lines of credit and merchant cash advances can fund the same day for qualifying Georgia liquor store businesses. Small business loans and equipment financing typically wire in 1–3 business days. SBA loans take 4–10 weeks because of government underwriting.
Are there Georgia-specific SBA programs liquor store owners should know about?
Yes. The Georgia District Office in Atlanta oversees SBA 7(a), 504, and microloan programs for Georgia small businesses, with home-grown lender partners that often add their own Georgia-focused incentives. Manu's network includes SBA-preferred lenders that fund in Georgia.
What credit score does a Georgia liquor store business need?
Minimum FICO depends on the product, not the state: equipment financing starts at 550, small business loans at 580, lines of credit at 600, and SBA loans at 660. Merchant cash advances and A/R financing have no minimum FICO when revenue is strong.
Will applying for a Georgia liquor store loan hurt my credit?
No. Pre-qualification uses a soft credit pull that does not affect your score. A hard pull only happens if you accept a final offer from a lender.
