Ventura, California, has long been home to a beloved Honey Baked Ham location, but this year, there’s been a notable change. The Ventura store was originally a franchise, but in a significant transition, it’s now proudly corporate-owned. Along with this shift in ownership comes a fresh and enthusiastic face at the helm: Nicole Cody. Nicole assumed the role of manager in July 2023, bringing with her a wealth of experience in management and a deep commitment to customer service.
What makes Nicole Cody the perfect fit for Honey Baked Ham in Ventura? Not only has she been a resident of Ventura for the past decade, but she’s also a true Southern Californian at heart. Nicole’s roots in the region have given her a profound understanding of the community, its tastes, and its values, which she aims to reflect in her role at the store.
Nicole was drawn to Honey Baked Ham by its unique family atmosphere and core values. At Honey Baked Ham, it’s not just about the ham; it’s about the people. The company goes to great lengths to take care of its employees and instill in them the mission and values of fostering family meals and fellowships. This genuine commitment to both customers and staff is what sets Honey Baked Ham apart from the rest.
Honey Baked Ham is no newcomer to the food scene. Since its inception in 1957, this delectable delight has delighted palates across the nation. It all began in Detroit, Michigan, when Harry J. Hoenselaar opened the very first store. From there, the delicious tradition spread far and wide, earning a cherished place in the hearts of many.
What sets Honey Baked Ham apart as the world’s best ham is the care and dedication that goes into every product. Their special glaze and sandwich qualities are the result of using the highest quality bone-in smoked ham. Harry Hoenselaar, the visionary founder, developed a unique curing and cooking procedure that brings out a one-of-a-kind taste – a taste that can only be described as perfection.
One of the exciting developments for the Ventura location is the expansion of their offerings, along with their Ribbon Cutting on December 10 to celebrate their freshly remodeled space!
Honey Baked Ham isn’t just for the holidays; it’s a year-round indulgence. Nicole Cody is enthusiastic about the post-holiday season, with plans to focus on catering and lunch boxes. This extension of services will allow more people to savor the exceptional taste of Honey Baked Ham whenever they desire.
And here’s an exciting opportunity for those looking to join the Honey Baked Ham family this season: employees will receive a free ham or turkey breast for their holiday celebration, making it a truly special season. Additionally, they’ll enjoy free lunch during each shift and flexible schedules, providing a work environment that prioritizes their well-being and quality of life.
In the heart of Ventura, Honey Baked Ham continues to be a place where the community can gather, enjoy delicious food, and create lasting memories. With Nicole Cody at the helm, and the unwavering commitment to quality and family values, the Ventura store is set to be an even more cherished part of the local culinary landscape.
