Brandon Hofmann

President, Parker’s Kitchen

Brandon Hofmann serves as the President of Parker’s Kitchen and is the architect behind the company’s explosive expansion plans and Best Place to Work initiatives.

At 19 years old, Brandon accepted a job working as a third-shift cashier in Hinesville, Ga. that would propel his professional career for the next 26 years and beyond. At the age of 20, Brandon was promoted to District Manager, overseeing all stores in Savannah, Statesboro, and Claxton. From there, he spent the next 8 years leading store teams and honing his operational skillset under the mentorship of Parker’s founder and CEO, Greg Parker.

Over the years, Brandon created the modern-day Parker’s brand image, standardized store layout and updated signage to create consistency from store to store, creating a template for future company growth. Serving as Parker’s inaugural Chief Marketing Officer for nearly 10 years, Brandon focused on honing Parker’s southern-style, made-from-scratch menu offering – including Parker’s legendary fresh, never-frozen chicken tenders and rebranding the store to include “Kitchen” in the name.

In early 2020, shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic hit the country, Brandon was promoted to Chief Operating Officer. Thanks to Brandon’s leadership, Parker’s emerged from the pandemic stronger, more unified, and more resilient due to the company’s unwavering commitment to taking care of team members and putting people first. In 2021, Brandon was promoted to President of Parker’s Kitchen and has been laser-focused on making the company one of the Best Places to Work in the United States.

A proud father of three, Brandon understands the importance of leadership, commitment and hard work. He believes in the culture at Parker’s Kitchen and wants other team members to enjoy the same opportunities for professional and personal growth that he has over the years.

At Parker’s, we offer a career path from CSR to CEO. We have high expectations, but if you work hard, you will be rewarded.

With stores strategically located across Georgia and South Carolina, Parker’s Kitchen stands apart as a smart alternative to traditional convenience stores, offering award-winning Southern-inspired food that’s prepared fresh on-site throughout the day, first-class customer service and an uncompromising commitment to quality.

We’re also deeply committed to giving back to the communities we serve and are proud to be one of the most generous companies in our industry. Whether we’re giving back through the Parker’s Community Fund, the Fueling the Community program or the new Round-Up Campaign, we’re always looking to support causes that matter most to our customers in meaningful, transformative ways.

Ultimately, Parker’s Kitchen stands apart as a special community where customers always feel right at home. It’s a place where you always know you’ll be greeted with a warm smile and can enjoy a hot meal for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It’s a place with caring team members and spotless restrooms.
