Exhibit 99.1

 

 

Dear Stockholders,

 

Since our Nasdaq uplisting, our focus has further pivoted toward building our company’s growth and scalability. To help in this endeavor, we continue to assemble an incredible Board of Directors and acquire new advisors with considerable experience and connections in the global luxury, travel, and hospitality worlds.

 

With the goal of making household names of each of our portfolio of brands, we believe these newly forged relationships can help create new opportunities to perhaps collaborate and partner with other well established global brands, and expand our brand reach and recognition on a global basis.

 

As you may have seen, last week we announced the appointment of A. William Allen as new company director. We believe his vast experience and extensive knowledge in the leisure, hospitality, and the food service industries makes him uniquely qualified to serve on our board.

Thanks and stay tuned for more exciting news ahead!

 

Sincerely,
