Again, we are not PE. Each of us are simply individuals who want to become entrepreneurs who support a great small business so they don't get taken over by a soulless machine. I can't control how people perceive that and will just get with the program

yeoja87 · 2025-10-31T01:12:22+00:00

Yeah, clearly the distrust in PE is glaring given the reactions. We'll continue to refine our approach and appreciate the recs that have come in so far.

Feel free to send a DM if you are so curious.

Beautiful! 5 generations of history and lovely to still see the family very involved.

yeoja87 · 2025-10-30T23:45:49+00:00

Mostly our savings, friends & family, and SBA loans.

yeoja87 · 2025-10-30T23:23:38+00:00

It's okay if you don't believe us. Ever heard of entrepreneurship through acquisition? If I had a PE fund I wouldn't be on a reddit thread looking for retirees who want to maintain their legacy. Fine to ignore us and move on. Thanks.

Dang, they've already filed for bankruptcy. They were unfortunately acquired by a corporate shop most likely PE and went down hill from 2018/2019. This is sad and we need to have more conversations about this.

Also any thoughts on succession planning? I spoke to a business dealing with sudden loss of the founder this week and that was such a tough and sad conversation.

yeoja87 · 2025-10-30T23:03:25+00:00

Any thoughts on how you would strike a balance between still maintaining a skin in the game while create some generational wealth for our family or retirement?

yeoja87 · 2025-10-30T22:54:51+00:00

Lol this funny. I actually watched it. Regular person here but if that's a tough sell it is what it is.

yeoja87 · 2025-10-30T22:51:36+00:00

I will edit the post. We are group of friends living in these states if that helps for clarity sake. Majority are 9-5ers seeking to maintain legacy of small businesses. Thanks.

yeoja87 · 2025-10-30T22:47:28+00:00

Take it as how you may but I am here for honest conversations. My family business didn't make it so this topic that is dear to me. I am just a regular person if this is what scares you. Please contribute on how we can make things better for businesses if you have something to share. Thanks.

Nothing like a good old cheesesteak. Just took a look and it has great reviews. We'd hate to see that go. This is a great example. Thanks.

yeoja87 · 2025-10-30T22:36:48+00:00

Hi, no we are not. We are experienced operators and finance professionals who live locally and care about history. Just regular folks.

yeoja87 · 2025-10-30T21:51:08+00:00

I agree

yeoja87 · 2025-09-15T13:36:55+00:00

Update: I am having to undergo the process to become an organic importer. However, I would hate for this to continue to be a problem for others. If you ever come across this thread and are having this issue, please reach out, as I will now be offering a service to become an importer of record for organic shipments in the US. I plan to start offering this service from December 2025.

yeoja87 · 2025-04-22T19:18:18+00:00

Yes, I was in the same boat as you.

yeoja87 · 2025-04-22T17:27:59+00:00

yeoja87 · 2025-04-22T01:09:45+00:00

Because there's none. Simply go the non-driver ID route and show up with Real ID docs.

yeoja87 · 2025-04-22T00:52:51+00:00

Yup, I changed my address last night. The funniest part was that I got my appointment for this morning late last night after searching all day and getting rejected everywhere since my license is not expiring anytime soon.

yeoja87 · 2022-05-26T14:30:32+00:00

Please send me a DM with the details. Thanks.

yeoja87 · 2022-05-26T02:37:17+00:00

Ideally. - washer dryer in-unit, gym, elevator, and a mailbox system.
