Marty Krutolow was a commercial airline and charter pilot for his first career. As a vegetarian and then vegan he blogged about his meals on Marty’s Flying Vegan Review and realized there was no REAL fast food in the vegan space. After retiring he moved towards his dream of getting good food at the lowest possible cost into the hands of as many people who might not have been previously able to afford it and save as many animals as possible.
After years of pop ups and food festivals, Marty’s V Burger opened as a brick and mortar on East 27th Street and Lexington Avenue in NYC and now Marty can be found working in the store occasionally but he works full time on putting the scalability of opening the next 5000 restaurants into effect.
