In previous years, the “Big Board” has served as a guide for what releases by which companies are planned for the IPCPR/PCA Trade Show. It was meant to serve as a guide to walk the trade show floor and find out what companies will be showcasing.

This year, we will take the “Big Board” live for our coverage of “Summer of ’20”. Today is the first cut of 120 companies that are frequently covered on Cigar Coop or a major publication. We will be updating this in real time as much as possible. The real time link can be found by clicking the button below:

[themify_button style=”light-gray rounded” link=”https://cigar-coop.com/summer-of-20-big-board” ]Big Board – Real Time[/themify_button]

We will also be taking snapshots of the Big Board in “The Blog” so you can follow along the progress of these companies. This will be done most likely on a weekly basis. We are also planning a Prime Time Show in July to cover this list.

Of the 120 companies, many have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition without the pressure of a PCA Trade Show, several companies have rushed to have a release out for July 10. As a result, there are currently 84 companies who have not made announcements – a whopping 70%.

Below is the Big Board Status as of midnight 6/18/2020. Following the list is criteria for inclusions or exclusions considered for this list. While the information is meant to be as accurate as possible, we know there are probably some omissions or corrections needed. Unless we find them, only corrections from the manufacturer or representative of the manufacturer will be considered. Corrections will be made on the real-time link and also corrected in the next updated post on “The Blog”. This current post will not be updated with the corrections.
