About HosPro
HosPro is a consultancy business that was founded by me, Erik Jönsson.
I’ve been in the hospitality industry since I was 15 years old, so well over 20 years. Yikes. I have a double Bachelor in Hospitality Management from Switzerland and the US, and I’ve worked in 4 continents, 8 countries and been part owner in well over 10 venues.

“How hard can it be to run a restaurant?”
…the amount of times I’ve heard and read that quote.
Let’s settle one thing:
IT’S HARD!
The hospitality industry is probably one of the business that requires the most input (hours worked) with the least amount of output (profit margin)
Trust me, I’ve learned the hard way.
But one essential thing that I’ve learned thoughout the years and which eventually gave birth to the idea to start HosPro is this:
It’s most often the small things that have the biggest impact on your business and your profit.
And through a lot of trial and error, I think I’ve grown to learn the process to implement those small decisions and how to convert them into a successful business.
