IPCPR 2018 – Trade Show On Schedule To Open at 1pm Pacific

With IPCPR experiencing an electrical fire early Sunday morning the start of Day 2 for the 2018 IPCPR was delayed 3 hours. It’s now 12:30 in Las Vegas at the time of writing this and a bit of an oddity for the cigar industry has occurred. The doors have been opened for manufacturers on time.

We reached out to Trevor Merrill of United Cigar about the trade show and if there was any lingering remnants from the fire. Mr Merrill stated, “There is a very faint smell of electrical, but for the most part it smells like cigars and new carpet.” Additionally Ed Santamaria the buyer for Two Guys Smoke Shop said, “there is an aroma of something, whether it is electrical wires or cleaning solutions is open for debate. The consensus is a mixture of electrical and carpet cleaner.” 

With the show floor open at 1pm local time we expect to continue our feed of videos from various booths in Las Vegas.
