The Habaguanex S.A. is a Cuban hospitality company which was founded by the Office of the Historian of Havana City and directed by Eusebio Leal.
History
The Habaguanex Tourist Company was founded on 6 January 1994. Habaguanex S.A. offers a historical hospitality experience with high architectural, cultural and historical significance, mainly in Old Havana, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1982. The company dedicated some of its ihe income to restore the historic centre of the city and to improve the living conditions of the local population. The company was administered by the Oficina del Historiador de la Ciudad de la Habana (OHCH).[1]
In 2012, the Habaguanex Tourist Company was tangled in a corruption affair. Шаблон:Cn
In August 2016, the ownership of the company was transferred from the City Historian's Office to the Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces.[2] In 2017, the Habaguanex Tourist Company was acquired by CIMEX and TRD Caribe, two companies owned by the military consortium GAESA (Grupo de Administración Empresarial.)[1][3] The hotels and restaurants owned by the group became part of the Gaviota Tourism Group. Subsequently, the US Department of State added all the Habaguanex-related locations on the State Dept.'s "restricted list" prohibiting "direct financial transactions" by those under US jurisdiction.[4]
