Gurkha has signed a deal with Kretek International Canada for distribution.
“Canadians represent the largest percentage of non-U.S. citizens vacationing in the United States,” said Kaizad Hansotia, ceo of Gurkha, in a press release. “As a result of these travels Canadians are asking their local retailers to carry more Gurkha cigars. We decided that we needed to have a larger sales effort in Canada. Gurkha only partners with the best and Kretek is both highly respected and highly efficient, they will be key to the expansion of Gurkha nation.”
