TAVERN REVIEWS
N BUSY CORNER TAVER ashe
Owner: Patrick Mah
Which are your top-selling liquor brands? My top-selling brand is Smirnoff 1818 by far, followed by Castle Lite, Amstel and Windhoek. Tovaritch! Vodka is also picking up well; Club10 will be hosting a tasting for it at my tavern, which we are looking forward to.
How long have you been in business? I’ve only been running my tavern for three years. When my wife and I started the business, we literally had no money, but we managed to make it work. Today our business is successful and we are really enjoying our life. We have also managed to pay our children’s school fees.
As a tavern owner, how do you give back to the community? I believe in children being involved in sports. As a result, I regularly donate money to the local football teams. Sometimes I donate full uniforms or money for transport for them to go and compete with other teams.
What role has Club10 played in the success of your business? I’ve been a member of Club 10 for two years now. They have renovated my place. They painted my walls, gave me great new signage and even put out flyers for my tavern to invite customers in. Over and above that, every month or two they have specials or activations at my tavern, which really benefit me.

I am very passionate about community Castle Lite and Heineken are my topsafety, so I enjoy helping out the police selling beers. When it comes to spirits, I and traffic cops whenever I have an mostly sell Smirnoff 1818. I have an equal opportunity to. percentage of female and male patrons and I find they enjoy the same drinks.

I started my business 10 years ago with my husband. We had a small amount of capital and decided to put it towards starting our own business. That was the best decision we ever made. What role has Club 10 played in the success of your business? Club 10 has been so kind to help make our tavern look attractive. They put up signs and host activations that draw a crowd. They also give us great deals on our stock, which contributes positively to our profits. Papa Lou Tavern
