Wade Brannon’s entrepreneurial endeavors began early on. He started, and later sold, his first enterprise shortly before receiving his BA in economics from Virginia’s Washington and Lee University. Brannon’s first experience with franchising grew into a remarkable success story.
As Senior Vice President and Principal of Heavenly Ham, he helped propel the company from one retail store to over 230 locations across the United States. Their business acumen was noted by Entrepreneur Magazine, which ranked Heavenly Ham the No. 1 franchise in its category for 10 consecutive years before it was sold to Honey Baked Ham.
With more than three decades of experience in the franchise world, Brannon knows what works. He knows the importance of customer service, franchise support, brand consistency and smart marketing. His expertise has guided Pigtails & Crewcuts to become one of the fastest growing children’s haircut franchises in the United States.
Beginning in 2010, Entrepreneur Magazine named Pigtails & Crewcuts to the Franchise 500 list where it remained for five consecutive years. In addition, Parents Magazine named Pigtails & Crewcuts one of the Top 10 Chains for Kid Birthday Parties.
