Aleeah Smith, a 27-year-old mother of four, is breaking barriers and making history in the restaurant industry.
As a first-generation franchise owner, she has successfully expanded her portfolio to include three franchises, solidifying her status as a notable entrepreneur.
Smith’s journey began at the age of 25 when she became the youngest franchise owner with The Peach Cobbler Factory. She quickly established herself by owning two restaurant locations and securing rights to a wide range of territories.
Her impressive achievements in the franchise world have set her apart as a trailblazer.
Recently, Smith continued her groundbreaking journey by becoming the first franchisee of Rickette’s World Famous Chicago Style Restaurant.
This new venture is an extension of the iconic “Uncle Remus” family brand, which has been a staple in Chicagoland for over 60 years under the leadership of owner Gus Rickette.
Smith’s latest endeavor is particularly significant as she is set to open the first generation of Sports Lounges under the Rickette’s brand.
The inaugural location will be in Atlanta, Georgia, with plans to expand to eight different states. This expansion marks a significant milestone in her career and underscores her influence in the franchise industry.
As Smith continues to pave the way for future entrepreneurs, she remains active on social media, where she shares updates and insights about her business ventures.
