Dear our customers and followers,
As you know, this fundraiser is going on now, and Iām reaching out to ask for a significant favor to secure the new equipment required to complete our lineup. Weāre just a little ways off from getting all the kitchen equipment and the retail appliances. Let me explain why.
Some of you already knew, weāre planning to reopen at 1701 Division Ave., and everything is almost ready. Even though we calculated all the construction costs, the price was different at the end, and we unexpectedly spent more on materials that we hadnāt thought about with original quotes for almost everything, which costs 1.5 times more than we had already expected and paidā¦
Then this happened: our food cart has been closed for 4 months and hasnāt generated any revenue since then⦠we didnāt expect that to happen. I have more explanations and details in the fundraising link. Unfortunately, we canāt afford to reopen on the 19th as a whole picture while working on building the new brick and mortar, as you all know. Thatās why weāre closed on the 19th, as I mentioned in the last post before. So I met Brandon, who is a great friend of mine and of our business, and told him about the situation for the first time in February. So Brandon, the video director, and I filmed this video a few days after the meeting, and I didnāt want to do it because sometimes you just donāt want to ask for help because I still thought that we could barely get it done by ourselves by the end of April, but now I know for sure, we canāt.
Weāre definitely at a corner. And spring is almost here. We wonāt be able to finish and see you without your help. Hopefully, I want to see you guys again. If youāre able to offer any support, no matter how small, it would greatly aid us in reopening our business in our new brick and mortar location. Weāre genuinely stoked to be part of this amazing community once againā¦
This fundraiser will go to cover the cost of reopening, and you can check for more details there.
Thank you so much for your support and love,
Young
