Smalls Sliders Franchise Model Overview

Smalls Sliders restaurants sell a deliberately short menu of made-to-order sliders, fries, sauces and milkshakes from freestanding modular drive-thru buildings of about 800 square feet that are manufactured off site, shipped and installed on a pad of roughly 25,000 to 35,000 square feet. Despite the small building, this is a seven-figure project: site work, the modular structure, equipment and signage make up most of the investment, and real estate purchase is excluded from the estimate. Staffing is substantial for the footprint, with a general manager and dozens of hourly crew members. An operating partner must oversee the business and a fully trained, full-time general manager must run it day to day, so semi-absentee ownership is possible with the right manager. The brand, backed by 10 Point Capital and affiliated with Walk-On's, is young and growing fast, more than doubling its franchised count in 2025, with a long pipeline of signed but unopened units. Renewal requires remodeling to current standards.

Ideal owner profile

Able to recruit and keep a strong full-time general manager for daily operations
Multi-unit developers can secure reduced fees through the Development Rights Rider
Comfortable with an early-stage, fast-growing system and evolving operating standards
