Havana American Deal Moves Cigar Trade Toward Monopoly
The Havana American Cigar Company of New York was absorbed by the American Cigar Company, a move wholesalers on South Meridian street say could push toward a national monopoly in fine cigars. The Havana American group included eight manufacturers led by Ybor Maurara, maker of El Principe de Gales, a brand common for fifty years. Local agency details and advertising costs for major brands are discussed, noting that profit margins have shrunk and volume sales drive success. Local dealers prepare to invoice stocks Monday to file claims against inventory.
