Creation of Leon and the Inspiration Behind It

John Vincent co-founded the restaurant chain Leon as a solution to the limited food choices available during business meetings. Unsatisfied with unhealthy options like fast food, he wanted to create a healthier alternative without compromising on taste. The idea was to reinvent popular fast food in a way that wasn't harmful to health. Leon has since grown to almost 52 restaurants, and its mission is to promote eating and living well.
