Black Star Line Cigars is the latest to announce that it will be increasing prices in the new year.
The company will be implementing an increase of 4 percent for all of the cigars in its portfolio. “I hate to raise the prices on our products, but we are living in inflationary times and I have to adjust prices based on what the materials used to make the cigars cost,” said Aric Bey, owner of Black Star Line Cigars, adding that he is seeing increases in the cost of boxes, tobacco, and shipping.
The increase will go into effect on Feb. 1, 2022, as Bey wants to give retailers attending the 2022 Tobacco Plus Expo in late January the opportunity to place orders at the company’s current prices.
