After a year of being distributed by Miami Cigar, Foundation Cigar Company will be bringing their Upsetters brand in-house for domestic distribution.
“Foundation Cigars has distributed The Upsetters brand internationally during the past year and decided it was time to add the brand to our core distribution portfolio here in the U.S. We are extremely thankful and appreciative for all of Miami Cigar Company’s efforts during the Upsetters’ first year,” says Melillo. He adds, “Prior to The Upsetters’ release we had no outside sales team and knew that a brand of this nature required instant coverage nationally. Jason Wood and his team at Miami Cigar Company stepped in and solved the problem, graciously agreeing to help us with distribution until we built a rep force, which we fortunately now have.”
“I thank Nick and the entire team at Foundation for entrusting the brand with us during its infant stages. I expect nothing but the best for the brand and the entire team moving forward “, said Wood.
The Upsetters will be transitioned and sold from Foundation Cigar Company beginning October 9th, 2017.
