JAKARTA Former heavyweight boxing world champion Mike Tyson continues to expand his business world. The latest fighter nicknamed Iron Mike opened a coffee shop in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
The former undisputed heavyweight champion started a lucrative cannabis business in 2016 after the goods were decriminalized by several states in America.
Through this business, Iron Mike even created his own type of marijuana. Products that he then suctions regularly.
After successfully undergoing the business, Tyson then added a new business by opening a coffee shop in Amsterdam. He opened this new business in locations where small amounts of marijuana were sold and consumed.
The coffee shop is named Coffee Shop Tyson 2.0. The business location is close to the famous Red Light district and officially opened on Friday last week.
As the business owner, Tyson has also tried all the products available in his new store.
"This is a dream come true to open our first coffee shop in Amsterdam," Tyson said in a press statement quoted by The Sun.
Tyson 2.0's Coffeeshop will bring fans into a new experience to enjoy all favorite Tyson 2.0 products like the one the owner did.
"I've tried and tested everything, and I can't wait to share some of the products I love the most," Tyson said.
Amsterdam was chosen by Tyson to open a new business due to various considerations. One of them is that this city is considered to have a very rich culture so that more than 18 million tourists visit every year.
"The Tyson 2.0 coffee shop celebrates our journey and marks an important milestone for the company as we expand our international presence outside North America to the growing European market," said Tyson 2.0 CEO Adam Wilks.
Visitors to Tyson's cafe are allowed to smoke marijuana at will because the use of marijuana for recreation at a coffee shop has been legal in the Netherlands since 1976.
However, they cannot bring the goods to the Red Light district due to the use of marijuana outside the room being included in illegal acts in May.
