## Story

Gatlin brings over 15 years of management experience into his new venture with Honey Baked Ham. He plans to translate the skills he learned from his background into his ownership philosophy surrounding his new location. As an Oxford native, Gatlin plans to be very hands-on from an operational standpoint to develop deeper relationships with the surrounding community as well as his staff. Specifically, he’s excited to provide catering as well as additional services for tailgating as the football season rolls around.

“Robert brings an extensive amount of operational experience, and we are confident that he will continue to provide our guests in Oxford with exceptional service,” said Scott Temme, Franchise Sales Development Manager at Honey Baked Ham.

Honey Baked Ham takes pride in presenting freshly served and made turkey breasts as well as an array of specialty meats that have become a symbol of shared celebrations and cherished family moments. The concept features multiple revenue streams for operators highlighting the diverse products that are offered between lunch and dinner.
