Cigar Boxes are custom-printed paperboard cartons for cigar makers, tobacconists, and gift sellers who want a refined pack that protects the product and carries the brand. We ship from our West Chicago, Illinois fulfillment center and print every box in full color.
A sturdy folding carton keeps cigars protected in transit and on the shelf, while a clean printed surface gives your label, seal, and origin story room to breathe. Use it as a retail multi-pack, a single-stick sleeve, or a gift box for a limited release.

Cigar Box Production in Real Quantities
Two construction routes exist and they price very differently. Wrapped rigid board with a hinged lid gives the weight and closing action buyers associate with the category, and specialty rigid builds begin at 100 pieces. A folding carton printed to look like wood grain reaches a similar look for less outlay and ships flat.
