Springfield, VA (April 18, 2016) โ€“ After a several delays, selected Fratello Cigars retailers should expect the receipt of the Fratello Branded Tray beginning this May. With a slight change on its design, the Fratello Tray will not come with the secret compartment as suggested in a prior companyโ€™s release.

โ€œAfter revisions with the design team, we decided to not to include the secret compartment so that the tray would fit most retailer shelves.โ€ This tray combines the power of engineering with functionality and style. Cutting the total Fratello shelve space by 30% while increasing our cigar output by 10% was one of our main goalsโ€. – said de Frias.

Introduced last year, Fratello limited the production to 125 trays. The Tray was offered to retailers who placed orders at the IPCPR in 2015. With a capacity to hold 200 cigars and 10 modular divisions, the Tray has the flexibility to display and adjust the complete Fratello line.

About Fratello – Launched in 2013 Fratello, the Italian word for “brother”, is a line created by Omar de Frias out of the Dominican Republic. The inspiration for the company came 20 years ago when Omar watched a torcedor (cigar roller) working on his art in the Dominican; when the torcedor finished the cigar he was rolling, he handed it to Omar and said “Kid, welcome to the true gentleman’s club”.
