About Cigar Logistics
Cigar Logistics is a real specialist cigar operation in Switzerland — not a generic freight broker. The warehouse, the systems and the handling discipline exist because premium cigars require different treatment from ordinary third-party logistics goods.
Cigar Logistics is run by a group with more than two decades of direct operating experience in the cigar business. That experience is central to the service: we understand how cigars need to be received, stored, handled, prepared and moved between markets.
The operation was built because cigars are not generic consumer goods. They are sensitive premium products where condition, presentation, traceability, timing and discretion matter — and the warehouse and inventory systems behind Cigar Logistics are part of an existing cigar business infrastructure, not a bolt-on to a general 3PL.
Our Purpose
Cigar companies developing European and international distribution need somewhere professional for their inventory to sit — before every final market allocation is known, and without fragmenting stock across national warehouses too early.
Building your own European warehouse, staff and systems is expensive and premature for most brands. And promising a single provider can solve every country's import, excise and compliance requirements creates risk rather than removing it.
One specialist Swiss bonded hub: receive stock from origin, protect it under cigar-specific conditions, keep the owner fully informed, prepare commercial orders and release stock efficiently to the appointed importer, distributor or authorised B2B partner.
Why Switzerland
Switzerland offers a credible central holding location with bonded storage and strong international connectivity — a professional point from which to serve European markets. Stock can be held under bond, subject to the applicable customs structure, while final market allocation decisions are made.
To be precise: Cigar Logistics serves European markets from Switzerland. Destination-market import, excise and compliance functions remain with the relevant authorised operator in each market — normally your appointed importer or distributor.
The Facility
Over 300 m² of climate-controlled racking dedicated to premium cigar stock — received, recorded and held under bond until your commercial orders move. We publish controlled, non-identifying photography of the operation; detailed facility imagery is withheld for security and client confidentiality, and warehouse visits are welcome by appointment.
Positioning
We concentrate on what we control and do exceptionally well: bonded storage, cigar-specific climate control, receiving and inspection, inventory visibility, careful order preparation, export documentation support, consolidation and B2B fulfilment. We do not market ourselves as the importer, excise operator or distributor in every destination market — we are the neutral infrastructure behind the partners you appoint.
