## Abstract

We report the draft genome sequence of Mammaliicoccus sciuri strain BAU-MFRK-Mam-2025 isolated from phuchka samples in Mymensingh, Bangladesh. The 2.78 Mb genome (GC 32.8%, genome coverage 50×) harbors multiple antibiotic resistance genes, underscoring its potential threat to food safety, antimicrobial resistance dissemination, and public health.
