Scores Holding Company Inc

(OTC: SCRH) is a Long Island City, New York-based company incorporated in 1981 that licenses the Scores trademarks and related intellectual property to gentlemen's nightclubs offering adult entertainment across the United States. The company's business model is built on the licensing of the Scores brand name and associated intellectual property — including the distinctive Scores name, trademarks, and brand equity associated with the New York original Scores club, which operated in Manhattan and gained widespread national recognition through media coverage and celebrity associations — to independent club operators who pay licensing fees in exchange for the right to operate under the Scores name. This franchise-like trademark licensing structure allows Scores Holding to generate revenue from the commercial value of its brand without directly owning or operating the licensed venues.<br><br>Scores Holding Company licenses its trademarks to clubs operating under the Scores name in Chicago, Illinois; Tampa, Florida; Mooresville, North Carolina; Palm Springs, Florida; and Las Vegas, Nevada.
