Smalls Sliders opened its first restaurant in 2019 and has since grown to six locations, with over 40 locations already in the development pipeline. Their differentiated, simplified menu and strong unit economics have already garnered industry recognition, with QSR magazine featuring the brand in their “40/40 List for 2022: America’s Hottest Startup Fast Casuals.”
