Camacho is currently building the new factory in the outskirts of Danl\u00ed, Honduras. It&#8217;s going to be 21,000 square meters, almost twice the size of their current one (11,000 m2). This is to keep up with the expected increase in demand.<\/p>\n<p>&#8222;The company is growing and the expectation is that the production will double within the next five years,&#8220; Luis T\u00e1bora, Head of Finance, says. &#8222;Last year we introduced our main brand, Camacho, in the EU, for instance, and it&#8217;s gone really well.&#8220;<\/p>\n<p>The plan to build a new factory came about a couple of years ago and the construction started in May last year. The move to the new facilities is planned for May this year. &#8222;We will have our own curing barn and fermentation there and we will start growing our own tobacco here in Honduras,&#8220; Manuel Batista, General Manager, says. &#8222;Until now all our own tobacco has come from the Dominican Republic,&#8220; T\u00e1bora adds. &#8222;Hopefully we will have our first crop this year.&#8220;<\/p>\n<p>With the new factory Camacho will be able to produce 24 million cigars annually, which of course will give a lot more job opportunities, but also secure the jobs of the already employed. &#8222;This will give them a better environment to work in and now they know that we are here to stay,&#8220; Batista says. &#8222;There have been many companies that have come and gone, but this investment is a statement for our long term plans.&#8220;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10549\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10549\" class=\"wp-image-10549 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/new-camacho-cigar-factory-inside-honduras-danli.jpg\" alt=\"Photo: Simon Lundh\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/new-camacho-cigar-factory-inside-honduras-danli.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/new-camacho-cigar-factory-inside-honduras-danli-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/new-camacho-cigar-factory-inside-honduras-danli-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/new-camacho-cigar-factory-inside-honduras-danli-770x578.jpg 770w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-10549\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Simon Lundh<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In May this year Oettinger Davidoff is hoping to open up a new and much bigger factory for their Camacho brand in Danl\u00ed, expecting to double production within the next five years.
