# Jeff Manno

> Hospitality & Restaurant Startup Expert

I am a builder of bold ideas — part strategist, part operator, all-in entrepreneur. I thrive where innovation meets execution: flipping distressed retreats into regenerative havens, scaling fast-casual concepts with streetwise flair, and crafting modular ventures that rewrite the hospitality playbook. The instincts of a founder, the precision of a consultant, and the hustle of a growth-stage COO — always hustling, always asking, “How can we make this bigger, faster, smarter?”

Whether determining company strategy, negotiating an operating agreement, or naming a Peruvian street-food concept, my decisions are grounded in data, driven by purpose, and guided by a relentless curiosity. Not just launching companies — shaping industries.

I'm a partner in several hospitality and restaurant startups, and I execute ad-hoc management consulting. With over 16 years of experience leading business strategy, operations, and new business development, I have a proven track record of creating value for diverse stakeholders. 

Let’s talk, and make your vision a reality.
