The first stand-alone contest of Miss Grand Cuba happened in mid-2023 in [[Tampa, Florida]], organized by former [[Miss Grand International 2014]], [[Daryanne Lees]], after she took over the franchise from the Miss y Mister Cuba organization,<ref name=2023direc/>
==History== Cuba has usually been sending their representatives to compete at the [[Miss Grand International]] since 2013,<ref name=cuba13/> and won the contest once in 2014 by a [[Cuban people|Cuban]]-[[Puerto Rican people|Puerto Rican]], [[Daryanne Lees]],<ref name=cuba14/> who later became the director of the Miss Grand Cuba pageant in 2023.<ref name=2023direc>{{cite web|url=http://missgrandcuba.com/|title=Miss Grand Cuba|date=2023|accessdate=13 May 2023|archivedate=28 April 2023|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20230428141052/http://missgrandcuba.com/|publisher=Miss Grand Cuba}}</ref> From 2013 to 2020, the license belonged to a Miami-based pageant organizer chaired by Noemi Meléndez, [[Miss Cuba]].<ref name=cuba15/><ref name=cuba16/><ref name=cuba2017/> However, no national contests were organized for Miss Grand International; Cuban representatives for the mentioned period were all appointed.<ref name=cuba17/><ref name=cuba21/>
In 2021, the license was taken over by another group of [[Cuban Americans]], Vicar Abel and Miledy de los Santos, and was then transferred to Julio César Cruz and Faddya Halabi in 2022, when Miss Grand Cuba was one of the main titles in their national pageant, Miss y Mister Cuba.<ref name="cuba"/> However, [[Daryanne Lees]], with a former licensee, Noemi Meléndez, as chief financial officer, took the license back in 2023 and organized the first contest of Miss Grand Cuba in [[Tampa, Florida]], in mid-2023, to select the country representative for the 2023 edition of Miss Grand International.<ref name=2023direc/> The license was then transferred to a Florida-based Cuban photographer, Cristian Aguiar, the following year.
