Colibri has promoted Marty Faust to become the company’s new vp of U.S. flame division, effectively immediately.

Faust joined Colibri in 2016 as the distributor and chain account manager after a long tenure at Altadis U.S.A.

“Our vision is to offer the highest quality tobacco accessories wherever the consumer shops. We want to be the ‘go to’ brand for tobacco consumers,” said Faust in a press release.

Faust fills the void created by Les Mann, previously the evp of Colibri, who left to work at XIKAR/Quality Importers.

I am an editor and co-founder of halfwheel.com/Rueda Media, LLC. I previously co-founded and published TheCigarFeed, one of the two predecessors of halfwheel. I have written about the cigar industry for more than a decade, covering everything from product launches to regulation to M&A. In addition, I handle a lot of the behind-the-scenes stuff here at halfwheel. I enjoy playing tennis, watching boxing, falling asleep to the Le Mans 24, wearing sweatshirts year-round and eating gyros. echte liebe.
