Smalls Sliders is gearing up for a major South Florida debut with a six-unit development agreement that will bring its signature “Cans” to Broward County. The fast-growing burger concept, known for its fresh, cooked-to-order cheeseburger sliders, has partnered with the experienced restaurateurs of Stacked Hospitality—Joe Sloboda, Stanley Tsung, and Gustavo Bursztyn—to expand across Fort Lauderdale, Pembroke Pines, Davie, Hollywood, Coral Springs, and Pompano Beach. The deal marks another milestone in the brand’s rapid rise within the fast-casual dining scene.
For the Stacked Hospitality team, the decision to join forces with Smalls Sliders came after visiting multiple locations and speaking with franchisees. “Smalls checked every box for what I look for in a brand,” Sloboda said. The group, with extensive experience running successful restaurant operations across Florida, Brazil, and Taiwan, saw an opportunity to bring a simple yet powerful concept to a region that thrives on accessible, high-quality dining. Their local expertise and understanding of market dynamics give the partnership strong footing for success.
Smalls Sliders’ appeal lies in its blend of quality and simplicity. The brand serves up a focused menu of cheeseburger sliders, crispy waffle fries, and hand-spun milkshakes from its distinctive bright orange shipping containers, aptly named “Cans.” This innovative model not only speeds up development but also delivers a consistent customer experience. With locations already open across Florida, including Ocala and Pensacola, Broward County represents the next chapter in a story of steady, strategic growth.
Richard Leveille, Vice President of Franchising at Smalls Sliders, expressed confidence in the new partnership, describing it as a perfect alignment of vision and operational excellence. “Joe and his partners bring an impressive combination of restaurant experience, entrepreneurial energy, and local knowledge,” he said. As the brand continues its expansion, South Florida is poised to become one of its most dynamic markets yet—a place where Smalls Sliders’ distinctive take on comfort food could become a new community favorite.
