## Story

Feather & Fries LLC, a family-run ownership group, signed a multi-unit development agreement to bring five Smalls Sliders locations to Upstate South Carolina. Feather & Fries is a multi-unit operator with Zaxbys. The group recently acquired the Spartanburg Smalls Sliders location, which opened earlier this year, and four additional locations are slated to open across the region.

"Smalls Sliders represents everything we were looking for in our next venture, an incredible product, a streamlined model, and a brand with genuine energy behind it," said a representative from Feather & Fries. "This is a family business for us, and we couldn't be happier to build a lasting legacy across the Upstate region and bring the 'Smorange' to even more communities." With this agreement, Smalls Sliders continues to accelerate momentum across the Southeast, with additional openings and development activity underway in key regional markets.

"This operating group brings an impressive combination of restaurant operations and long-term local commitment," said Richard Leveille, VP of franchising for Smalls Sliders. "Their history as successful multi-unit operators, as well as their passion for building family-led businesses, makes them an ideal group to expand Smalls Sliders throughout Upstate South Carolina. We're confident they'll make Smalls a standout destination across Greenville, Anderson, and Clemson."
