Robert Huntington

Robert (Rob) Huntington is the CEO of Oakscale Franchise Partners and of Metric Collective, a New York-based group that builds, markets, and invests in franchise brands. A former high-school history teacher who ran the single largest Huntington Learning Center before earning an MBA at Kellogg and consulting at BCG, he now applies data, software, and digital marketing to a slow-moving industry, connecting entrepreneurs with franchise concepts and helping emerging brands scale. He led the angel round that seeded Oakscale with $1.2M in 2019 and frames franchising's challenge bluntly: the industry has been coasting downhill and now has to pedal.
