German Engineered Cigars has announced it will work with City of Palms Cigar Distribution Services as its new U.S. distributor. Previously, German Engineered Cigars were distributed by Illusione Cigars.

In a statement, German Engineered Cigars said:

“City of Palms is not just any distributor: it’s a startup founded by industry veterans. Given our shared startup ethos, this partnership is a natural fit for us. Leveraging City of Palms’ experience and expansive sales and broker network, we aim to boost our service efficiency and expand our reach across the U.S.

“Our collaboration ensures that our retailers will continue to receive our products seamlessly, thanks to our already relocated inventory to the City of Palms’ Fort Myers warehouse.

“We extend our heartfelt thanks to Illusione, our former distributor. Their invaluable support has played a crucial role in our brand’s growth in the U.S. and international markets.”

Based in Fort Myers, Florida; City of Palms Cigar Distribution Services, LLC provides distribution services in the U.S. for premium boutique hand rolled cigar companies. The company provides services such as importing, bonded warehousing, inventory control, invoicing, shipping, payment processing, commission processing, monthly reporting, and other services to brand owners. Earlier this year, City of Palms took on the U.S. distribution for ADVentura Cigars.
