Smalls Sliders has signed its first development agreement in Tennessee. The multi-unit deal will bring four Cans to the Knoxville metro region with Tennessee-based entrepreneur Blake McDavid, a multi-unit franchise owner and commercial real estate investor.

At just 30 years old, McDavid is poised to bring the craveable slider concept to East Tennessee. With experience developing and operating restaurant franchises, he brings strong operational expertise and a deep understanding of QSR models like Smalls Sliders. The first of the four Cans is slated to open by Fall 2026.
