Despite our confidence being shattered about a SuperBowl weekend opening we thought we were safe saying March Madness. But reality is sinking in and we will be lucky to be open for the National Championship Game on April 2nd. Permits have all been signed off but construction in earnest isn't starting until next week Feb 7th. Then 4 - 5 weeks of buildout, 1 week for the floors and 1 or two weeks for us all to move in. Simple logic pushes out to mid April best case.
We are selling though. My last post mentioned our first customer Paul Benn. We have made a couple other sales of full boxes. If you are looking for a box of cigars or accessories we can and will sell it to you. Unfortunately we don't have enough storage space to sell partial boxes yet. You'll have to wait until the store opens.
We are actively looking for a manager to run the store. This is our most important decision and if you have anybody you can recommend let me know. If you have somebody that would be a great fit for running a retail Cigar Store and Lounge please let me know at jrichardson@yobbo.net.
Sorry, no pictures this week. Lots of stuff happening but not anything that you can take a picture of.
