With our crowdfunding campaign set to begin tomorrow, Friday November 16, we are hopeful we’ll soon have the capital required to begin to replicate our success in another market as we scale up our business and continue to keep tight controls on our corporate overhead, our attractive margins and store level economics should lead to sustainable profitability.”
