Saffron Restaurant needs your help, Brattleboro area residents and friends from near and far
Saffron Restaurant was forced to close—not because of anything we, the owners, or the employees, did wrong, but because of a dispute between the landlord and Green Mountain Power.
Without notice to any of its occupants, including our restaurant, GMP cut power to the entire Colonial Motel and Pool complex. Then the water supply was cut off. Without water and electricity, we cannot run our business. Our hardworking employees are now without income. Our doors are closed on Putney Road.
But we are NOT giving up. We simply need some help with relocating and reopening.
We are a small, immigrant-owned Middle Eastern restaurant. We scrimped and saved to open Saffron Restaurant. We invested everything — over $100,000 of our savings, loans from friends, essentially everything we had — into bringing the flavors of our Afghan homeland to Brattleboro. We signed contracts in good faith.
We are going to reopen in another location as soon as possible. We just need the Brattleboro area’s friends to help us to get there.
Please SHARE this post — it means everything.
Every dollar goes toward supporting our staff and reopening as soon as possible.
