E.P. Carrillo Congratulates Lissette Pérez-Carrillo

E.P. Carrillo is proud to announce and extend its heartfelt congratulations to Lissette Pérez-Carrillo on her recent election to the Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Board of Directors.

Lissette’s journey in the cigar industry is one of passion, dedication, and expertise. She has been a part of this world since the age of five, starting with the simple yet integral task of putting bands on cigars. Despite her early involvement, Lissette also pursued and achieved graduate degrees in legal studies and psychology, which led to a successful ten-year career as a full-time attorney.

Since 2009, Lissette has been a co-owner of E.P. Carrillo, working alongside her brother, Ernie, and father, Ernesto. Her dual expertise in law and the cigar industry positions her uniquely to serve on the PCA Board.

“I feel I can offer the PCA board a unique blend of legal knowledge and firsthand industry experience,” said Lissette Pérez-Carrillo. “I aim to leverage my unique mix of legal and entrepreneurial expertise to advocate for and advance the interests of our industry. My goal is to uphold the traditions and quality of the cigar industry while navigating it through the evolving legal and business landscapes, ensuring the PCA remains a dynamic, influential, and effective voice for all members of the cigar community.”

Done, and thank you.
