The manufacturers’ association, founded in 1992, makes it possible to study the Dominican industry through the very houses that make it up. Its institutional information should be distinguished from the data for each blend.

Knowing a sector also means recognising the institutions that bring its manufacturers together. ProCigar presents itself as a Dominican non-profit association, founded in 1992 to protect the reputation and future of its industry.

Its website makes it possible to consult the member houses and to approach the making of cigars through institutional information and activities linked to the factories. It is a direct source on the organisation and on how its members present the work of the Dominican cigar.

The association makes it possible to explore a group of manufacturers that share a territory while keeping their own trajectories. It can be used as a first guide to houses and factories. When moving on to a specific cigar, its producer’s sheet provides the information on construction and blend that the institutional description leaves open.
