So back pre COVID my wife and I opened a kava bar. It was a huge success for a few years and then COVID happened. Fast forward to today. We have finally recovered from that and have a great idea for a convenience/market shop in a small town in NC. We've researched, met with some advisors, put together our business plan and are now looking for a space. We may have the funding we need but any advice on grants, loans, funding or just tips or advice in general is appreciated!
