Anorak Eats & Crafts
Coming Soon To Roatan - Restaurant and Brewery with a purpose to give back to the local community.
Hello everyone!
A few words to keep you posted on our progress. Right now, everything is moving much slower than we expected. Access to Roatan from Canada is very limited and complex. We will need to get to the island as soon as practicable to move forward with the location aspect of the project. In the meantime, we will be building the menu and will be revealing parts of it on the page very soon.
Hopefully this pandemic situation will get under control sooner than later and « normal » flow of tourism will resume on the island. Hang in there my friends, these difficult times will come to an end and the island economy will thrive again.

If you see one of us pass by, cheer us up!

Happy Independence Day to our American friends. Stay safe and celebrate responsibly, the virus isn’t taking any breaks. 🍻
Hello everyone. Happy Canada day to all my fellow Canadians.
We are happy to report we are currently in advanced talks with a lot owner in West End to land our containers. We need to get this materialized to know the size of the lot so we can constrain our design within the available space.
Our online store is almost finished and ready to go live. We have received a few samples of the products we intend to sell already. All the profits of the sales will go to the funding of the project.
Don’t forget to invite your friends to the page. The more the merrier. Wether they can give money to the project or not, we welcome everyone and we never know who will get in touch with us who might know someone who knows someone!
Cheers!

Coming soon to our upcoming online boutique. Buy some useful stuff made of recycled wood and help finance the project. All profits will go directly to the funding
Small update on the progress. We did a lot in the past week to find a suitable location in West-end. Being here in Canada isn’t making that task easy but we are using our resourcefulness to forward this important aspect of the project. We need to have a lot size to finalize the design of the facility. We also worked on the marketing action plan for the Go Fund Me. We realized we need to raise the awareness about Roatan and the impact Anorak Eats and Crafts will have on Roataners. Our plan includes a bunch of videos that will help everyone understand what is Roatan, why we are doing what we are doing. Some of the videos will be an ongoing « making of » of the project to keep everyone up to date with the progress of this exciting adventure.

Hi everyone, some of you may be wondering what would happen with your donation if the project failed to happen…
Well, the short answer is: It will happen! Wether or not we finance the whole project or just partly with crowd funding, the project will happen and the money you gave will serve the purpose it was meant for. We have many ways to complete the financing if we fall short with the crowdfunding. However, all other ways imply paying back the source of the money. So that part could not go back to the community. Remember, 100% of the money you pledge is going back to the community.
200 likes! Thank you all for joining us in this beautiful (and crazy) adventure and see the project become a reality, right before your eyes. 😘
