JRE Suffers Warehouse Break In
Justo Eiroa heard horror stories but never thought it would happen to him.
Over the weekend, it happened to him. JRE Tobacco Co. was the victim of a warehouse burglary this weekend. Eiroa told halfwheel that thieves broke in through the roof and emptied the company’s Miami warehouse of all of its products.
“This has taken an emotional toll on us as 2020 continues to hurt all of us,” said Eiroa, president of JRE, in a statement was sent to his sales representatives.
JRE is stressing retailers to not buy cigars through any sources other than its sales representatives or offices.
