Edina, MN – CertiFresh Cigar®, a leading provider of premium cigars to golf clubs, resorts and casinos around the country, will be showcasing a growing list of unique custom accessories, and packaging featuring four different cigar brands in its booth at the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando next week.
The PGA Show is scheduled for Jan. 25-27 in the Orange County Convention Center. CertiFresh Cigar® will be located in Booth #5943.
For over 20 years, CertiFresh Cigar® has offered the finest brand-name cigars that are delivered in a perfectly humidified custom package. Boveda’s patented two-way humidity control device is the cornerstone of CertiFresh packaging. Freshness of cigars is guaranteed for one year due to the packaging, so golf courses do not have to maintain a traditional humidor to carry the product.
The custom tubes and packs continue to be the company’s bread and butter. But the brand is expanding and diversifying.
This year customers can purchase a new four-cigar pack that proved to be hugely popular during a test market last year. The pack includes four different brands – Drew Estates’ Papa Fritas, Ashton Half Corona, Romeo Petite Bully and Oliva Serie O #4. The one thing they have in common is that they are all short, quick smokes.
“They are 15 to 20 minute smokes, perfect for a second cigar during the round, and for your group post-round,” said CertiFresh co-owner Eric Nelson. “You can see the foursome sitting down after the round. One of the guys says, ‘I’ll get this round of drinks and you get the four cigars. We wanted to create a way for guys who didn’t have time for a full cigar to still have the opportunity to enjoy one after the round.
“In our test market we didn’t see a drop in traditional cigar sales, but we did see an increase in overall sales. The four-pack met our objectives, and also created more sales for the club at the same time.”
CertiFresh has also expanded its custom accessories line, which includes torches, cutters, custom wood ashtrays, and CigarBlox that attach to the side of golf carts and deck chairs to hold cigars in place.
Every CertiFresh Cigar comes with customized packaging featuring the club or event logo, making for great gifts for tournaments and events. There is no added charge for the customized packaging.
“Our goal is not just to be a cigar provider,” said Nelson. “We want to be the provider of the entire cigar program. We are known for matching Premium Cigars with the best courses in the U.S. Now we are doing the same with a few accessories and specialty items.”
The wide range of quality cigars offered by CertiFresh includes: Acid, Alec Bradley, Ashton, Avo, Camacho, Cohiba, Davidoff, Fuente, La Aroma, Liga, Macanudo, Montecristo, Punch, Oliva, Romeo y Julietta, Rocky Patel and San Cristobal.
