L&F Jones is a family-owned business that has been operating in the United Kingdom for over a century. Founded in 1908 by Leslie and Florence Jones, the company initially started as a small grocery store in the heart of Somerset. Over the years, L&F Jones has expanded its operations to include a variety of sectors, including hospitality, food service, and retail.

History[edit | edit source]

The origins of L&F Jones trace back to the early 20th century when Leslie Jones, together with his wife Florence, opened their first grocery store. Their commitment to quality products and customer service helped the business to thrive. In the 1950s, the second generation of the Jones family expanded the business into the hospitality sector, opening their first hotel. This diversification marked the beginning of a new era for L&F Jones, setting the foundation for future growth.

Throughout the decades, L&F Jones continued to grow, both organically and through acquisitions. The company's portfolio expanded to include several hotels, restaurants, and coffee shops across the Southwest of England. Despite its growth, L&F Jones has remained a family-owned business, with the third and fourth generations of the Jones family continuing the legacy of its founders.
