HVC Increasing Prices in February
Effective Feb. 1, 2024, HVC Cigars will increase the prices of its cigars by 20 cents per cigar.
The changes will affect virtually every cigar in the company’s portfolio, the one exception being the relatively new HVC Hot Cake Maduro Half Corona, which won’t increase in price.
“This decision is driven by factors such as rising production costs, inflation and other economic considerations,” said the company in an email to retailers. “We understand the importance of cost stability for your business, and we assure you that this adjustment is essential for us to maintain the high quality and reliability you expect from our offerings.”
Most cigar companies will only adjust pricing once per year. Those changes are typically enacted at the start of the new year, though some companies announced price increases in Q3 of last year. Below is a list of companies that have announced whether they will have a price increase in and around the start of 2024.
