The fast-food chain has 70 outlets across England, plus franchises in Ireland, Gran Canaria and the Netherlands.
Bosses said yesterday they plan more than 50 UK openings including drivethrus next year, with 1,000 posts – more than double the 20-plus sites announced earlier. Accelerated expansion after that would take staff hirings to 4,000.
The chain was bought by the forecourt billionaire Issa brothers this year – they also snapped up Asda.
Glenn Edwards, Leon managing director, said: “For the first time we will be taking Leon across the country.”
