cigar factories

Roll cigars here

Cigar factories are facilities where cigars are manufactured, typically involving the rolling of tobacco leaves by hand or machine.

The term carries particular historical weight in American labor history—Tampa's Ybor City cigar factories employed readers who read aloud to workers, and such factories were sites of early union organizing.

The cigar factories of Havana once employed thousands of skilled rollers.
