Limited sales activity continued, but 2025 was not a normal operating year. Rent was abated during 2025 while the insurance matter and property issues were being resolved.The insurance claim was settled in early 2026, and public operations have resumed from the first floor.

The 2025 tax return is not yet available.Lean Current Operating StructureThe business is presently operated by:• Two full-time owner-managers• One full-time salesperson• One part-time accountantThe current payroll structure totals approximately $19,000 per month.
