Shock closure of local
venue!
THE Latin Lounge on Post Office Ave. in
Southport is one of many venues to have closed out of the blue. It looks like
the area’s businesses are being assaulted on all sides and its having a
devastating affect on the area. In this occasion we are still trying to get the
information from all the parties involved, but from what we are told, the Bank
has reprocessed the building from the Landlords and booted out, without any
apparent warning the tenant, Sandy McKenzie. Sandy has for many years worked
extremely hard to build her business up and is in shock.
We are told that she is taking legal advice. We are also told
that she only found out when she arrived, as normal, to open up, only to find
notices on the gates. The forfeiture notice was place on the doors and gate. We
have tried contacted Joint Land Projects Limited, who is named on the notice
posted on the Post Office Avenue venue, as well as the joint receiver, Andrew
Wilson and Co. We are told that the notice was issued on 9 June 2016. If anyone
has been affected by the closure of The Latin Lounge, please let us know. We
have been informed that Sandy is trying to sort out everyone who had parties
booked in as quickly as she can. A local estate agency has been asked to market
the building for sale.
We will have more on this as we get it. What are your views on
this shocking news? Do you think we should expect for more businesses to close
over 2016? Email your views please to our newsroom today via:-
