PITCHme Panel 2022 | Jon Hassall

Jon Hassall has held several senior, national, and international positions in England, across Europe and now in Australasia for some of the most well-known global hospitality brands and organisations.

Hassall didn’t plan on a long and successful career in the QSR sector – he just wanted £90 for a Super Nintendo console. To bolster his funds, he applied for a job at his local McDonald’s, planning only a short stint. He ended up staying for ten years.

“Once you have hospitality, QSR and high velocity retailing in your blood it’s hard to leave.”

Highly motivated, accomplished, and passionate about business development, Hassall understands what is required in a product entering the foodservice space.

Currently the Chief Operating Officer at Café Brands Limited (Columbus Coffee, Mexico, YLC), Hassell will be looking for brands with a fit-for-purpose, but also exciting and innovative offering.
