According to an August 14 report from VerdictFoodService.com, the company is focusing on still further growth opportunities.

As excerpted from the report: It has become a sought-after franchise opportunity for multi-unit and multi-brand operators since reopening its franchising in mid-2023.... Smalls Sliders CEO Maria Rivera said: “Reaching this milestone is not only a testament to the growing strength of our brand but a clear signal of the exciting future that lies ahead for Smalls Sliders."

The Louisiana-based company was founded only five years ago, in 2019, by Brandon Landry. The company’s financial backer is Drew Brees, the former New Orleans Saints quarterback.
