He also will create multimedia campaigns designed to keep Parker’s 54 c-stores top of mind among customers in coastal Georgia and South Carolina.   

“At Parker’s, all gross profit, other than gas, is driven by Brandon and his department,” said Parker’s CEO Greg Parker. “Brandon is a marketing genius who has truly earned his recent promotion. He has been loyal to Parker’s since he began working as a customer service representative at the age of 19. Brandon is someone I completely trust to expand our brand and to market our award-winning Parker’s Kitchen concept as we continue to grow in new and existing markets.”
