His father, Ulrich Hartl, bought Don Cigarro in spring 2022. As the owner of Hartl Premium Tobacco GmbH and importer of Rocky Patel, Oscar Valladares and other branded cigars, he has been active in the Swiss market since 2003. In addition, he already owns two specialised tobacco shops in the canton of Zug. Both shops are Habanos Points, and Don Cigarro is now a Habanos Specialist.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"610\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/habanos-original-intertabak-2022.png\" alt=\"habanos original intertabak 2022\" class=\"wp-image-51633\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/habanos-original-intertabak-2022.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/habanos-original-intertabak-2022-768x468.png 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/habanos-original-intertabak-2022-624x381.png 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>The \u201eHabanos Original 2022\u201c series is supported by the official importer of Cuban cigars, Intertabak AG. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/tag\/habanos-original\/\">You can find the whole series here &gt;<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"titel-1\">What can customers expect from Don Cigarro?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">The existing range will remain and customers will be able to buy their products as usual.

He worked in various positions in his father's company. One day, his father said to him: \u201eDon Cigarro is for sale. What do you think, should I buy the company and you can run it as managing director and realise your vision?\u201c Vincent initially said no because he was already looking for a job outside his father's company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Some time passed and the idea of running Don Cigarro as managing director grew in Vincent's mind. \u201eIt's a good idea,\u201c he said to his father one day. \u201eIt's also a good way to plan the succession of your company.\u201c -\u201eYes!\u201c his father replied. No sooner said than done. Don Cigarro was bought after all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Don-Cigarro-7.jpg\" alt=\"Don Cigarro\" class=\"wp-image-55998\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Don-Cigarro-7.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Don-Cigarro-7-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Don-Cigarro-7-624x416.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>What a fantastic rarity!

As Brunold and Hartl emphasise, the sale took place in an atmosphere of partnership and fairness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">What is Vincent's vision and what is his concrete plan? \u201eWell, I don't want to give everything away,\u201c he smiles and continues: \u201eFor customers, the first step is a smooth transition. They will find the website as they know it. The next step is to make the necessary changes and adjustments in many areas: Website technology, newsletter concept and many other things. Customers can look forward to the future with Don Cigarro!\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ressourcen-zum-thema\">Resources on the topic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.doncigarro.ch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Don Cigarro online shop<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/tag\/habanos-original\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">You can find the whole series here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intertabak.com\/de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Intertabak AG<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/tag\/habanoszigarre\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Habanos cigar: 4-part film documentary with eBooks<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Photos in this article: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.csf-321.ch\/fotografie\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FotoWerk 132<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vincent Hartl is the new Managing Director of Don Cigarro.
