Smalls Sliders, the burger chain brainchild of Brandon Landry, signed its second multiunit agreement with Florida-based operating group DPC Smalls Investments, bolstering the brand’s footprint across the Florida Panhandle, QSR magazine reports.

Doug Cone signed a four-restaurant deal for the Destin and Panama City Beach areas with the first slated to drop in 2025. The deal follows the group’s initial agreement with Smalls Sliders in April, which included a dozen restaurants across Tallahassee and Jacksonville

“Smalls Sliders is a truly unique concept that is revolutionizing the QSR industry,” says Cone. “Having been in the hospitality industry for decades, we knew Smalls Sliders was a special brand that we wanted to continue growing with.”

The ownership group plans to target Panama City, Panama City Beach, Destin, Fort Walton Beach, Niceville, and Crestview. 

The brand, launched in 2019, has been growing rapidly. Landry told Daily Report in April that Small Sliders had over 200 locations under development with 40 slated to open this year. Last week, the brand celebrated reaching its 300th in development

FTBOA Partners With Florida Coast Equipment


Florida Coast Equipment has entered into a partnership agreement with the Florida Thoroughbred Breeders’ and Owners’ Association making Kubota the exclusive tractor, mower, utility vehicle, and construction equipment sponsor of the Florida Thoroughbred industry, starting in 2026.

The long-term agreement, announced Dec. 23, places Florida Coast Equipment and the Kubota brand front and center to Florida’s Thoroughbred industry, a $3.2 billion industry with more than 90,000 Thoroughbreds and 33,500 jobs.

The Florida Coast Equipment name will now be prominently displayed throughout the FTBOA headquarters, events, and communications, including an advertising package on FTBOA.com, Wire to Wire, and the Florida Horse Farm and Services Directory.

“This partnership goes beyond sponsorship. Florida Coast Equipment is proud to serve as the local dealer of choice for Florida’s Thoroughbred community—working alongside breeders and owners every day with the equipment, service, and support they rely on,” said Florida Coast Equipment online sales manger Timothy Morris Jr. “Both the FTBOA and Florida Coast Equipment are deeply rooted in Florida agriculture and share a commitment to long-term relationships, stewardship, and doing things the right way. That shared mindset is what makes this partnership a natural fit and positions it for lasting impact across the industry.”
