Marcus Lemonis is more than a TV personality, he is a successful entrepreneur, advocate, and philanthropist. And in a world where business leaders are lauded for being cutthroat, Marcus does it all with heart and compassion for the people, process, and product he aspires to elevate. But as with many success stories, his road has not always been an easy one.
As a young man, Marcus honed his entrepreneurial spirit while working at his family's automotive dealership. By the age of 25, Marcus seized upon an opportunity to reshape the way recreational vehicles and outdoor equipment was sold. Under his leadership and vision, Camping World would grow to become the Nation’s largest RV retailer and would make Marcus Lemonis one of the most successful businessmen in America.
But with each great success, the lessons of humility imparted by his mother have helped keep him grounded, reminding him that the true riches of life are found in giving back. With millions of dollars donated to charitable organizations, including starting his own The Lemon-Aid Foundation, and investing in small businesses, as well as production company, Zero Point Zero, he is an advocate for the underdog and finds his strongest inspiration by investing in people. Marcus Lemonis may have been born in Lebanon, but he is 100% American-made.
Now viewers are gearing up for his new HGTV show,
The Renovator
