Crowned Heads has announced that it has added two new sales representatives.

Andy Yaffee will serve as the company’s new representative for Kentucky, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and the company’s home state of Tennessee. Yaffee most recently served as the national sales director of Micallef Cigars. Last month, Micallef announced that it had hired Micky Pegg to serve as the president of sales. Prior to his time at Micallef, Yaffee worked at La For Dominicana and Nat Sherman.

In addition, Crowned Heads has announced that Craig Smith will serve as the company’s representative for Arizona, California, Nevada and New Mexico.

“I’m excited to welcome these dynamic individuals to the Crowned Heads team,” said Miguel Schoedel, national sales manager for Crowned Heads, in a press release. “Their addition will go a long way towards our goal of providing an unparalleled level of customer support and attention to our retail partners.”

In addition to its own brands, Crowned Heads also distributes the Ozgener Family Cigars portfolio.
