Business owner information

Norman F.

Business Owner

When preparing to go to graduate school at Vanderbilt University in 1973, Norman, then a recent Lipscomb University graduate,  and his wife Barbara, then a Metro Nashville teacher, decided to open a donut shop "on the side."  A friend, Herb Stewart, taught Norman to cook donuts and helped find the equipment and then introduced Norman to Oliver Harlow, founder of Honey Fluff Donuts.  These two helped get the business off to a great start and continued their friendship and business relationship through the years.  Harlow's donut recipes have been the basis for the yummy treats Nashville has come to love.
