Havana's Project Information
Havana's is seeking funds to overall improve operational efficiency, as well
as comfort for our patrons and staff. With approval of these grant funds, our
projected plan will the addition of new tables and chairs for our space. Below we
will outline the details, description and timeline for the project scope.
Dining Furniture-
When we purchased our building in July 2023, we planned to use the
second-hand dining furniture which was left behind from previous business
ventures within the space. With the addition of new dining furniture, we can
provide a more comforting dining experience to our customers. After researching
some major dining furniture brands, we have found that these are quality and
durable and should last for many years to come.
