This alliance marks a milestone for Nativo, which until now had exclusively represented Nicaraguan brands, and now welcomes a line that enriches its portfolio with the elegance and legacy of Dominican tobacco.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The decision to join forces was far from random. In the words of Daniel Barrios, from Nativo Casa de Marcas:<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWe share with Quesada not only a vision of how tobacco should be crafted, but also a shared philosophy on life: friendship, respect, and long-term commitment as essential values. This partnership is born from affection, not just strategy. The Quesada family has always been close to our house, and they\u2019re now here to stay. For Nativo, representing Quesada in Spain is an honor that connects us with the living history of this market.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">From Quesada Cigars, it took many months to reflect on how to reclaim their space in a market where they were once a key reference. After years of inconsistent distribution, the answer became clear: return to their roots\u2014to allies who truly understand the brand\u2019s essence, to friends who know that crafting cigars is not just a business, but a soulful craft.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cReuniting with Nativo felt like reuniting with ourselves. With friends who get us, who know that lineage is not just inheritance\u2014it\u2019s purpose. Spain has always been a vital part of our story, not only as a market but as part of our family roots. While I am Cuban, I am also deeply Spanish. That\u2019s why returning now, at this stage of my life, with my daughters leading the future of the company, is deeply emotional for me. It feels like closing a circle. And doing it hand in hand with Nativo, with whom we share so many values and memories, reignites my passion for this industry I love so much.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s1\">\u2014 Manolo Quesada<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The commercial operation will be supported by Nativo\u2019s experienced sales force and their logistics partner COMET, another long-time friend of the Quesada family.
