What we collect in Illinois

Restaurant construction permit

Chicago, Illinois. City feed, checked daily.

Issued building permits describing restaurant build-outs or renovations. The operator may not be named.

City of Chicago, Department of Buildings

Franchise restaurant sold

Nationwide, a few a month. Checked daily.

When FranBizNetwork, the brokerage that runs Restaurant Intel, closes the sale of a franchise restaurant in Illinois, the sold location is in the report too: address, brand, close date and the business phone when the brokerage has it. It is our own sale record, not a government filing, and the row says so. Never the buyer, seller or price.

FranBizNetwork

Not covered

  • Outside Chicago, Illinois has SBA 7(a) financing approvals as background, plus any franchise restaurant FranBizNetwork sold there.
  • Only what these registers publish, on the publisher's own schedule.
  • Phone numbers: a Illinois row needs a lookup before a call, from the name, address and government link.
  • Loan requests. A filing shows activity, not a need for a loan; an ownership change is not a business for sale, and a franchise or chain is labeled, not removed.

Other states with direct feeds

Everywhere else: SBA 7(a) financing approvals as background, plus any franchise restaurant FranBizNetwork sold there. This week by state · All sources
