## Story

Savvy Sliders is known for its freshly-made sliders, of course, but its menu also features chicken fingers, custard shakes, fish, falafel, and more. It was founded in Michigan in 2018 by Amer Asker, who also started Happy's Pizza (and in fact the two were co-branded to start). Savvy Sliders had grown to 42 franchised restaurants, mostly in the Midwest but also in the South, by the end of last year. The company also offers catering and a food truck that can be booked, which it credits for helping it grow.
