Montague Gluckstein, known to his family as Monte, (18 July 1854 – 7 October 1922) was a director of Salmon & Gluckstein tobacco merchants, and one of the founders of J. Lyons and Co., a restaurant chain, food manufacturing, and hotel conglomerate created in 1884 that dominated British mass-catering in the first half of the twentieth century.[1] Descendant and historian of Lyons, Thomas Harding, has described him as "the primary entrepreneurial engine behind this original family vision".[2]
Montague Gluckstein was the son of Samuel Gluckstein, the founder of Salmon & Gluckstein.[1][2]
