Two Guys Cigar Shop Plans Franchise
The Boston Globe has a
piece on the Two Guys Smoke Shop in New Hampshire which recently opened
its second store, a franchise in Seabrook, New Hampshire. David Garofalo, one of the original "two guys" is
hoping to start a chain of the shops stretching from the Northeast to Florida. The popular cigar store has been in
business since 1985 and now does mail order. They started in Massachusetts but but were eventually chased off to
tax-free New Hampshire by the Massachusetts cigar tax. The main Two Guys Smoke Shop in Salem, New Hampshire also offers
a private club with billiards, baccarat and a cappuccino bar. Two Guys has 22 private labels and also offers a cigar of
the month club (four cigars for $20 per month).[via The Front Door]
