ATLANTA – Smalls Sliders, the cheeseburger slider brand that is painting the restaurant industry Smorange™, has announced that is accelerating the brand’s growth plans by developing Company-owned and operated Cans. The very first Company-owned Can for the groundbreaking concept will be dropping in Georgia.  

With over 250 Cans open or under development, the brand is poised for growth across new and existing markets as it ramps up expansion beyond its Southeast roots. To further build upon this foundation, the brand is launching this Company Can initiative to invest in its long-term success while simultaneously elevating its footprint across key regions and states. Through a robust pipeline in place, Smalls Sliders is now projecting that the brand will reach 40 open Cans in 2024.

“Smalls Sliders has truly emerged in the QSR space,” said Don Crocker, Chief Development Officer of Smalls Sliders. “The development of our new Company-owned Cans signifies the commitment and investment in the longevity and health of our special brand. By augmenting our franchise focus with the Company expansion of our footprint in key regions, like our home state of Georgia, we aim to enhance our brand presence and solidify our pathway to being a dominant player in the QSR industry.” 

This Company-owned Cans initiative will incite further expansion throughout Georgia, and to start, will explore development opportunities in South Carolina, Florida, and Tennessee, as well. Notably, the brand also recently ranked on Entrepreneur’s Top New & Emerging Franchises list for the second year in a row, indicating the intense draw and growth potential the concept continues to present. 

Smalls Sliders currently has Cans open across Louisiana and Mississippi, with a robust pipeline of growth set across 18 states in the Southeast and the Midwest. Likewise, Smalls Sliders has expanded its target growth markets to Utah, Colorado, Kentucky and more, ramping up to officially paint the nation its signature ‘Smorange™’ color. 

Smalls Sliders opened its first signature ‘Smorange™’ colored Can in 2019. Since its inception, Smalls Sliders has disrupted the QSR industry with its stacked leadership team and robust development pipeline, furthering its rapid growth trajectory with more than 250 Cans open or under development. The brand continues to garner high-level industry recognition, with Nation’s Restaurant News featuring Smalls Sliders in its “Breakout Brands of 2023”, and QSR Magazine ranking the brand in its annual QSR 50 Contenders list. Other accolades include ranking on Entrepreneur magazine’s “Top New & Emerging Franchises” list in 2023 and 2024.
