Leon Fast Food Chain Cuts Jobs, Sales Drop
Update: 2025-12-10
Description
Leon, the fast food chain known for its halloumi burgers and waffle fries, is facing challenges. After appointing administrators and selling back to co-founder John Vincent for a fraction of the original price, Leon plans to close some restaurants and reduce staff. The company, which employs 1,120 people, has been grappling with declining sales and high electricity costs, leading to a drop in revenue and a narrower loss. The sale and closures come after co-founder Henry Dimbleby criticized Asdas management for straying from Leons core mission of healthy and convenient food.
