Tatuaje Cigars Inc. and L’ Atelier Imports will merge to form a single company. ”From March 19, the two companies will be merged into one, all lines will be shipped by Tatuaje Cigars Inc. Havana Cellars which, moreover, will begin to affix bar-codes on 85% of the combined portfolio ”. Pete himself had described it as an irrefutable offer, adding that he could not, in any way, try to restrain Sean.
Pete Johnson, we remember, gave birth to the Tatuaje brand during 2003 when he was still working as a retailer. L’ Atelier saw the light of day in 2012, which is a project between Pete Johnson, his brother K.C. Johnson, Sean “Casper” Johnson (same surname but without any relation) and Dan Welsh.
