Louisiana-based Smalls Sliders has inked a deal with Jay Tee Holdings LLC to bring five units to Louisiana and Texas. The deal marks the brand's Louisiana territory as officially sold out, according to a press release.
Smalls Sliders has more than 100 restaurants, called "cans," in development.
"This signed agreement marks a pivotal milestone for the Smalls Sliders brand as we've officially sold out our first state," Maria Rivera, CEO of Smalls Sliders, said in the release. "It's amazing to see such a significant achievement be reached so early on in our growth journey and it is thanks to such esteemed professionals like this trio that have allowed us to do so. Todd, Rob, and JP all have extensive experience in a variety of fields that will support their operations with Smalls Sliders, and we look forward to supporting them as they begin developing their Cans across Texas and Louisiana."
Franchisees Todd Touchet, Rob Carter and Jonathan "JP" Perry plan to have their first location open in late spring of 2024.
"Rob, JP and I were immediately attracted to the business opportunity that Smalls Sliders presented. We wanted to be a part of something new, exciting, and different. And how can you not be excited to work with leaders like Brandon and Maria and the amazing team they have put together," Touchet said in the release. "The concept offers a unique experience and a premium product for guests with its limited menu. After meeting the entire Smalls Sliders squad, we immediately knew this brand was going to be something big. Their team has helped make this process seamless and we are each thrilled to play a part in the brand's early expansion and bring its cheeseburger sliders to new communities across Louisiana and Texas."
