Leon, the healthy fast food chain led by Henry Dimbleby and John Vincent, has enjoyed growth of 31.3% in its like-for-like-sales so far this year, M&C Report has learnt.

The company, which currently operates 18 restaurants and is planning to open another four to five by the end of the year, celebrated its 10th anniversary this month.

In honour of the milestone the company hosted 10 days of celebrations with give-aways for loyal customers.

The daily give-aways were designed to remind customers of the milestones Leon has achieved since opening its first store that include being the first high street food-to-go group to serve a number of foods that are now commonplace on many menus including the superfood salad, porridge and sweet potato falafels.
