For many, franchising serves as a pathway to career independence and prosperity for corporate professionals looking to chart their own course in the business world. At The Honey Baked Ham Company®, our franchise network embodies this spirit of empowerment and achievement, with individuals from diverse backgrounds finding fulfillment and success in their entrepreneurial endeavors.
One notable example is Chang Heng Juan, whose journey from corporate roles to franchise ownership exemplifies the transformative power of franchising. As a first-generation immigrant from Taiwan, Chang Heng brings a wealth of experience and a deep entrepreneurial spirit to his new venture with us.
Before embarking on his franchising journey with HoneyBaked, Chang Heng was actively involved in the training of new employees and franchisees for another restaurant franchise. His dedication to excellence and his knack for managing store-level operations across Northern Virginia set the stage for his next big move into franchise ownership.
Driven by a shared commitment to quality, consistency, and guest satisfaction, Chang Heng was drawn to HoneyBaked’s renowned brand reputation and guest-first approach.
He chose franchise ownership with our brand over other traditional restaurant and quick service concepts due to our family-friendly lifestyle, offering an alternative to long hours typically associated with restaurant franchise ownership. With a keen understanding of the industry and a passion for delivering exceptional products and experiences, Chang Heng knew that HoneyBaked was the perfect fit for his entrepreneurial aspirations.
Now, as he prepares to open a new HoneyBaked location in Charlottesville, Virginia, Chang Heng is poised to make a lasting impact in his community. His story serves as an inspiration to those seeking the American Dream, demonstrating that a meaningful transition from corporate roles to franchise ownership is achievable.
With the unwavering support of the HoneyBaked team and a proven business model behind him, Chang Heng is ready to spread more HoneyBaked happiness and create cherished moments for families in Charlottesville and beyond.
