Confidential Letter — Distribution Framework
This letter is structured into distinct sections, each strictly assigned to a specific recipient category. Access is granted only upon identity verification via personal identification number and Swish confirmation. All requests undergo manual screening before release.
📁 General Access
Eligible to any applicant passing the identification process.
- 📊 Strategic Comparison — Financial breakdown of Quan vs. Elite Hotel (2019–2023)
- 🍽️ Integration Trends — Overview of F&B integration strategies across Europe and the Nordic region, including ownership shifts, brand control dynamics, and tactical models for hotel groups.
- 📎 Bank Leverage & Proxy Governance — Case: Izakaya AB & HSSC Event (2004–2025). Legal structuring, loan tactics & proxy board maneuvers shaping ownership shifts.

📰 Media & Union Access
Reserved for journalists and labor representatives. Follows the same identification process. Research institutions, students and investigators are not eligible under this category.
- 🧭 Dual System — A decryptive take on the Henrik–Sahar pairing and its internal misalignment based on cross-context observations.

- 🍷 Semiotics of Taste — is a series of short essays decoding the ritualised social theatre of food, dining, and status — not just from the client’s side, but through the eyes of restaurateurs projecting their own aspirational mimicry. From René Girard’s mimetic desire to the fantasy of the eternal weekend dinner, the series explores how service culture, class friction, and identity rituals intersect — and how hospitality becomes both camouflage and fantasy for upward mobility.
