How Honey Baked Ham Has Used Gigpro to Benefit Their Staffing Model

Honey Baked Ham rebrand includes sauces, sides, sandwiches, and their famous ham and turkeys for order.

Honey Baked Ham is home to the World’s Best Ham. They deliver honey-baked happiness, not just during the holidays but year-round. They serve amazing hams, turkey, sandwiches, and sides. Gigpro became Honey Baked Ham’s preferred staffing alternative in November of 2022 with Thanksgiving right around the corner. 

Gigpro’s model matches perfectly with Honey Baked Ham’s need over the holidays for short-term job assignments without a long-term commitment, so the match between the efficiency of the gig economy in app form, works very well to fulfill their associate needs. Their highest volume is over the holidays where Gigpro helps with positions like Line Cooks, Prep Cooks, and Front of the House support.

The bulk of their hiring needs is for short stints around the holidays, as they need enough staff to keep up with the high demand and lines out the door. They cannot maintain their reputation for service and production short-staffed, so they must work with a partner they can count on to supply consistent quality staff during their highest volume periods of business.

To date Honey Baked Ham partners with Gigpro across 9 stores in Charleston, Cleveland, Columbus, Richmond, Philadelphia, Palm Beach, Louisville, Atlanta, Columbus, Denver, and Nashville. Gigpro has filled over 44,220 Labor hours across Honey Baked Ham stores and hopes to continue to expand our relationship as Gigpro launches new markets throughout 2023 and 2024. 

Over the Easter holiday weekend, Gigpro fulfilled over 1,800 shift hours across 40 stores in Charleston, Cleveland, Columbus, Richmond, and Nashville. 

“We work with Gigpro so we can ensure that our customers receive the customer service and service they expect at a Honey Baked Ham”. Our favorite things about Gigpro are the ease of conversion, great pricing, and very good focus on customer success. Gigpro is always there, ready and willing to ensure managers at each store understand the product and can use it to its full capacity. “
