- Overview
Sly's Sliders & Fries - Franchise
Sly’s Sliders & Fries was founded in the historic Thomas Square District of Savannah GA. Our chefs had a vision of elevating a classic American favorite, sliders, by using only exceptional tasting, high quality proteins & preparations. Our mission is to take your favorite hand-held foods & make them smaller so you can taste them all!
With an artisan approach to hand-made American classic burgers, sandwiches, & fries, Sly’s quickly became a major food hub for students, tourists, & locals alike. We are looking to expand our brand with local restauranteurs in major metropolitan & popular suburban areas throughout the U.S. If you are in a growing community & have a dream location in mind, look no further for the right restaurant. Nothing would be a more ideal match than a Sly’s Sliders & Fries!
Creative On-Trend Positioning
Sly’s is a fun & well differentiated restaurant in the high demand burger space. While our casual Southern comfort approach is certainly a favorite with people of all ages, our diverse array artisan sliders, slider dogs, smothered fries & craft beers draw Gen-X, Millennials & Gen-Z by the droves.
Our appeal to those generations is of significance when you examine their purchasing power. YPulse, a world leader in consumer insight, estimates Millennials’ spending power at 3 trillion dollars. More relevant to our brand, they devote as much as 71% of expenditures to dining-out or take-out.
Menu & Investment that Makes Sense
Sly’s guests can choose sliders with premium Australian beef from Greg Norman’s ranch, Southern Fried Chicken, BBQ Pulled Pork, Smoked Brisket, Grilled Salmon, Corned Beef, Caribbean Jerk Chicken, Marinated Mushroom, Falafel Mahamurra, & more. To complete the experience, we serve our famous hand-cut fries with ten topping choices with a variety of ice-cold craft beer & hard cider that is ideally suited for our menu.
With 2021 annual gross sales of $1,041,000 & a low-cost entry point of only $440,000, Sly's Sliders & Fries locations are economical to operate.* They have no need for an experienced chef & can be run with 4-7 employees per shift.
We will work directly with you as well as your store management to locate, design, construct & operate an economical 1,500 to 2,500 square foot restaurant & provide array of proactively developed benefits that you may not find with other franchises:
