Marcus Lemonis Bio

Marcus Lemonis, host of the HGTV series The Renovator, is best known for breathing life back into struggling small businesses on CNBC's The Profit. More than a TV personality, Marcus is a successful entrepreneur, advocate and philanthropist. 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. As a young man, Marcus honed his entrepreneurial spirit while working at his family's automotive dealership. At 25, he seized an opportunity to reshape the way recreational vehicles and outdoor equipment was sold and founded Camping World. Marcus is also an advocate for the underdog and finds his strongest inspiration by investing in people. He's donated millions of dollars to charitable organizations; started his charity (LemonAid Foundation); and invested in many small businesses.
