These LEON Grocery sauces are making their way to the UK market as a series of consumer packaged goods (CPGs) perfect for helping to elevate a range of recipes this summer. The products are each inspired by flavors, tastes and textures that consumers will recognize from LEON restaurants to help shoppers bring the QSR brand home with them in a new way. The product range includes the Korean Gochujang Mayo, Garlic Lemon Mayo, Honey Mustard Mayo and Hot Honey Sriracha with the brand's vegan-friendly Garlic Aioli maintaining its spot in the portfolio.
The LEON Grocery sauces are priced ranging from £2.85 to £2.95 and will be available at Sainsbury's for shoppers to peruse starting July 28, 2025. The products will each be low-cost and accessible yet prioritize high-quality ingredients and flavors.
