Revenue Share Investment in The Parlor and The Barber & Tobacconist

Revenue Share Model

Investors receive a percentage of monthly gross revenue, distributed monthly, until they have received a set multiple of their original investment back (the cap). Once the cap is reached, the revenue share ends. Higher investment tiers receive a higher return multiple as a reward for the larger commitment.

All investor obligations are met before ownership takes any profit. Paying investors back is the first priority after keeping the business running.

The Parlor

Investment Opportunity

A premium cigar lounge with its own house cigar, live jazz, coffee by day, cocktails by night, and retail cigars alongside curated menswear. The space seats 20 to 30 guests in a leased location designed for comfort and conversation.
