CertiFresh Cigar Set for PGA Show With New Brands, Accessories and Strong Partnerships

(ROBBINSDALE, MN) – CertiFresh Cigar, a leading provider of premium cigars to golf clubs around the country, will be showcasing several new cigar brands, some unique accessories, and a new, low-maintenance humidor in its booth at the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando next week.

The PGA Show is scheduled for Jan. 26-28 in the Orange County Convention Center. CertiFresh Cigar will be located in Booth 5943.

For over 20 years, CertiFresh Cigar has offered the finest brand-name cigars that are delivered in a perfectly humidified custom package. Boveda's patented two-way humidity control device is the cornerstone of CertiFresh packaging. Freshness of cigars is guaranteed for one year due to the packaging, so golf courses do not have to maintain a traditional humidor to carry the product. 

CertiFresh has enjoyed steady growth, and now services over 3,000 golf courses, clubs, resorts and casinos. The company changed hands two years ago when Bill Porter, who founded the company in 1999, turned over the reins to Eric and Matt Nelson.

One reason the company continues to thrive is its creativity and flexibility in working with and promoting partner products. The company recently introduced the latest collaborative effort.

“We have partnered with Tubeaux by Rocky Patel to bring their new line to the golf industry,” said Eric Nelson, co-owner of CertiFresh Cigar. “Tubeaux by Rocky Patel is a low maintenance humidor in which the cigars are kept fresh by our good friends at Boveda.  It comes in three different sizes and can hold 80-160 of the finest cigars in the world.”

The Tubeaux by Rocky Patel team is very happy with the relationship.“CertiFresh’s market relationship combined with Tubeaux by Rocky Patel’s innovative and patented display options will prove to be a huge benefit to the golf space in making premium cigar retail easy and high turn for any golf venue,” said Darren Thibodeau, VP Operations for Tubeaux by Rocky Patel.

Every CertiFresh Cigar comes with customized packaging featuring the club or event logo, making for great gifts for tournaments and events. There is no added charge for the customized packaging.

CertiFresh has also added several customized accessories for its clients, including 3 flame torches, cutters, cigar holders and wooden ashtrays.

“The custom piece really falls in line with our CertiFresh Cigar brand,” said Nelson. “We are known for matching Premium Cigars with the best courses in the U.S. Now we are doing the same with a few accessories.”

The newest additions to the CertiFresh premium lineup are Rocky Patel’s White Label, Zino Nicaragua, Montecristo Nicaragua and Romeo y Julietta Reserva Real Nicaragua.  

“With these additions, we are focusing on high-end country clubs and resorts as the price point fits these areas,” said Nelson. “These additions to an already high-end selection will please clients that are looking to bring in an elite brand for their customers.”

The wide range of quality cigars offered by CertiFresh includes: Acid, Alec Bradley, Ashton, Avo, Cohiba, Davidoff, Fuente, La Aroma, Liga, Macanudo, Montecristo, Punch, Oliva, Romeo y Julietta, Rocky Patel and Undercrown.
