H3 Enterprises, Inc., the world’s first publicly traded Hip-Hop company, announced that it had expanded its celebrity line up with the additions of multi platinum selling artists Busta Rhymes and Cassidy.
H3 Enterprises will be launching the nation’s first HipHopSodaShop this month (December 2007) in Tampa, Florida. The HipHopSodaShop franchise is the backbone of the H3 related businesses and encapsulates not only the numerous revenue streams that the company has developed, but also embodies the "community conscious" approach that H3 applies to all of its endeavors. Dr. Benjamin Chavis, CEO and President, stated, “H3 Enterprises is proud of the fact that we have reached a major milestone today.
The opening of the HipHopSodaShop is a landmark event for the culture of Hip-Hop. It is also a new global business model that we intend to replicate not only in the major cities across America, but also in the major market places throughout the world. In fact, business leaders as well as celebrities are arriving in Tampa from cities across America today to witness how to develop and launch a HipHopSodaShop franchise in their respective communities.”
The HipHopSodaShop comes complete with a healthy quick service menu, merchandising, a state of the art recording studio, 30 giant LCD screens, the latest Xbox 360 live video games, and a large area dedicated to competitive on-line video gaming. The first HipHopSodaShop is over 11,000 sq ft and is a modern day cultural arts center where many forms of Hip-Hop can be expressed by patrons and embraced by the community.
It’s a recipe for success: combine popular music with healthful dining options and flavor with socially-responsible capitalism. The eclectic menu includes limited fried foods and no mono unsaturated or polyunsaturated (trans) fats. The shop will feature “rap” sandwiches with few carbohydrates and a beverage line made with antioxidant-rich white tea and sweetened with chicory syrup instead of sugar. Clever monikers, sprinkled throughout the menu, are geared to strike a chord with diners while encouraging financial literacy.
The venue, which is less than a mile from the University of South Florida which has over 40,000 students, is located at 1241 East Fowler Avenue, Tampa, Florida. The 11,000-square-foot space has undergone renovations to become a full-service, conceptually-chic restaurant.
It is equipped with a recording studio, multiple 4’x 5’ video screens, tableside video-gaming apparatuses and a DJ/MC booth with surround sound. Targeted to a youthful demographic, aged 13-35, the restaurant will hold special events like open mic nights, live HD sportscasts, live outdoor concerts and cyber gaming. The store will also carry clothing, MP3 players and recorded music.
