In a letter sent to retailers, Rocky Patel has announced a price increase due to the new FDA regulations. The letter which was sent late yesterday states,
“Due to rising costs associated with the Food and Drug Administration we are announcing the following price increase on our brands. Effective November 15, 2016, we will be taking a 5% price increase on all Rocky Patel Branded Product with the exception of RP Decade (2.5%) and RP Vintage Juniors ($.05 per cigar). We have attached a new Rocky Patel price list for your review.
We thank you for your understanding and support of our company.
