Les Fines Lames, has announced upcoming price increase across select products effective May 15, 2024.

The French company has maintained stable pricing since 2019 despite the economic turbulence caused by Covid-19 and other global supply chain challenges. These changes are a response to increased costs in raw materials, transportation, and an average 16.3% price hike from suppliers between 2020 and 2024.

The increase include a 3 to 7% increase on their flagship Le Petit cigar knife, a 6% increase on the Concrete Ashtray, and a 13% rise in the price of the Cigar Stand. Notably, prices for other items such as the Punch Bracelet and Le Tag T135 and T100 will remain unchanged. Les Fines Lames emphasizes that all orders confirmed before May 15 will be honored at current prices, offering consumers and retailers a brief window to purchase at the existing rates.

Since its inception in 2016, Les Fines Lames has carved a niche in the premium cigar accessories market, achieving significant international presence with over 90% of its turnover generated from overseas sales. The company was recognized as producing the best cigar accessory in 2022, highlighting its commitment to quality and design.

The forthcoming price adjustments reflect the company’s attempt to balance maintaining quality and manufacturing standards in France while managing increased supplier costs. Despite these changes, Les Fines Lames aims to continue delivering value to both end consumers and retailers.

The company maintains a robust online engagement with its customers through social media, where it has amassed a following of 65,000. Les Fines Lames also participates in international cigar events and has established numerous partnerships with other prestigious brands, underscoring its standing in the global market. These price adjustments are portrayed as essential to sustaining the brand’s commitment to quality in a challenging economic environment.
