Jonesboro, AR – (Contributed) – July 16, 2024 – Haag Brown Commercial is thrilled to announce Arkansas’ first Smalls Sliders will soon be located in front of the Sumo Japanese Steakhouse at 2807 Red Wolf Boulevard in Jonesboro, AR.
Backed by former NFL quarterback Drew Brees, Smalls Sliders is a quick-serve restaurant dedicated to making everyone’s day a small bit better by serving up cheeseburger sliders better than anyone else – and shaking up the big burger industry in the process. They keep their menu simple – fresh-to-order sliders, signature “smauce”, waffle fries and shakes – focusing their energy on providing BIG flavor and BIG fun.
To say the brand is rapidly growing would be an understatement. Founded by Brandon Landry in Louisiana in 2019, Smalls Sliders has opened 14 locations with more than 240 “cans” currently under development in multiple states, and 30 slated to “drop” in 2024.
The Smalls Sliders “can,” an exciting prototype comprised of several iconic orange and gray shipping containers featuring a full-service drive-through, walk-up window, and outdoor patio, will be situated just off I-555 near the highly trafficked intersection of Red Wolf Boulevard and Phillips/Apache Drive.
Surrounded by an array of national restaurants like Red Lobster and Longhorn Steakhouse AND NEA Baptist’s state-of-the-art Red Wolf Clinic, Imaging Center and Urgent Care Plus, the unique building will have exposure to over 35,000 cars per day.
Haag Brown Commercial’s Executive Broker Zac Qualls represented the owners of the 1.19 acre lot, long-time Haag Brown portfolio clients and local business owners, in securing the multi-year ground lease. Bill Siems of Location CRE in St. Louis, Missouri represented the tenant.
“It was a lot of fun getting to work with the Smalls’ group on their first Arkansas location here in Jonesboro! Visibility and access were key and the site in front of one of Jonesboro’s top-producing restaurants, Sumo Japanese Steakhouse, was the perfect fit! Cannot wait for Jonesboro to get to experience this cool new burger concept!” Zac Qualls | Haag Brown Commercial Executive Broker
