Jordan Foley

Let’s Chow is a non-profit organization founded by chef Jordan Foley to help U.S. military veterans and their spouses get started in the culinary field. Following the suicide of one of his friends, who went into debt trying to open a restaurant, Jordan wondered what support this veteran had lacked to succeed.

He has therefore set up a program that enables participants to learn culinary techniques, business management and even receive financial support to start their own food truck. The idea is to enable them, through logistical and technical support, to benefit from on-the-job training in Let’s Chow ‘s trucks, enabling them to become home chefs or launch their own food-truck or restaurant. The profits generated by Let’s Chow ‘s mobile kitchens are reinvested in culinary therapies, cookware donations and educational programs.

Let’s Chow currently runs 18 businesses, including four nationwide food-trucks, catering services and other food businesses.
