Travisma 1,317 Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 My daughter just sent me an Instagram post. Disney is taking ownership of all Morocco Pavilion businesses. I had seen that the quick serve had $$ trouble and closed up a few weeks ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lightbikes 73 Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 This makes me depressed - every time we went to Epcot we ate at either Spice Table or the Tangerine - and every year I brought home their spice mixtures to give a gifts and for myself. I do hope Disney doesn't change everything but in keeping with everything else they have done they probably will. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 I'd read that Disney had filed liens back in September against money owed. Just read this... Quote BREAKING: Disney Officially Taking Ownership of All Morocco Pavilion Businesses at EPCOT The Morocco Pavilion at EPCOT has made a number of headlines in the aftermath of COVID-19, as few pavilions have been so publicly affected by the pandemic’s devastating impact. After a number of internal issues, Walt Disney World will officially be assuming operations of all Morocco Pavilion businesses at EPCOT, including all food & beverage and merchandise locations. Back in April, Marrakesh Moroccan Restaurant, LLC. filed for a PPP loan of $1-2 million in order to retain 260 jobs through the funds acquired. In September, Walt Disney World filed a UCC Financing Statement, or a type of lien with the state, claiming collateral against “All goods, inventory, the Furnishings, and all other items of personal property belonging to Debtor which are or may be put into the Facilities and all proceeds of the foregoing.” Now, it seems the company is moving forward with a mutual agreement to transition operations to Disney, with a goal of assuming all operations by the end of the year. The pavilion sent out termination notices to its Cast Members through an internal memo late last month, as we learned through sources. https://wdwnt.com/2020/10/breaking-disney-officially-taking-ownership-of-all-morocco-pavilion-businesses-at-epcot/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shoreline99 137 Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 The Morocco pavilion was always one of the quiet spots to visit in EPCOT, and the food was always very good. This makes me sad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
