What we do

Cigar-industry expertise built around the project

Our services are organised around the things clients actually need to create or improve: products, brands, retail and hospitality concepts, and commercial routes to market. Cigar Projects can manage a complete development or step into a specific part of an existing project.

Division 01

Cigar Product Development & Private Label

Develop a new cigar product, private-label line or brand extension with support across factory sourcing, blend briefs, sampling, vitolas, packaging, production coordination and launch preparation.

Product Development
Division 02

Cigar Brand Development

Build the commercial structure around the cigar: positioning, target customer, product architecture, naming and identity direction, packaging, price structure, route to market, launch strategy and repositioning of existing brands.

Brand Development
Division 03

Retail, Lounges & Hospitality

Create or improve cigar shops, lounges, humidors and hospitality programmes with practical input on concept, layout, assortment, suppliers, merchandising, operating procedures and launch.

Retail & Hospitality
Division 04

Market Development & Special Projects

For market entry, distribution strategy, route-to-market planning, commercial review, supplier development and cigar-industry projects that do not fit a standard service description.

Special Projects
How we work

One project lead. The right specialists around it.

Cigar Projects does not need to perform every discipline in-house. Where appropriate, we coordinate with factories, designers, packaging suppliers, logistics providers, distributors, architects and local specialists. The value is in bringing the right people into a coherent cigar-industry project and keeping the commercial objective clear.
