J.G. Petrucci Company, Inc. Breaks Ground on World’s Largest Retail Cigar Store in Bethlehem, PA

J.G. Petrucci Company, Inc. (Petrucci), one of the New Jersey and Pennsylvania region’s leading Development and Design/Build construction firms, recently broke ground on a 58,545-square-foot headquarters facility and retail/bar/lounge experience for discount cigar retailer Cigar Page. Construction commenced in early February 2026 and was spearheaded by Petrucci’s in-house construction management firm, Iron Hill Construction Management.

The new facility will be located at 1010 Harvard Avenue in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The company, currently headquartered in Bath, Pennsylvania, reached out to Petrucci when it came time to expand. Cigar Page, founded in 2015, is the second largest e-commerce retailer in the country, and this will be their first physical retail location. The project consists of warehouse, office, and retail/ lounge space, expected to open in early 2027.

Once open, it will contain the world’s largest cigar store. About half of the space will be used for retail operations, featuring an outdoor patio, a keg/cooler room, a 26’ stone fireplace, a full-service bar, over 200 seats in the cigar lounge, and a 4,400 square foot humidor room featuring a wide selection of handmade cigars. An additional 14,750-square-foot second-story mezzanine located above the retail space will serve as the main office headquarters for Brandshopper, LLC (parent company of Cigar Page), housing over 100 employees.

“We’re proud to be delivering a project in Bethlehem that will attract visitors from across the region and support continued economic activity in the Lehigh Valley,” said Dominick Baker, Vice President at Petrucci. “Developments like this highlight the strength of the local market and the opportunities it offers growing companies.”

Cigar Page aims to make this space the “ultimate destination for cigar lovers.” As the fastest-growing cigar retailer of the past decade, the new headquarters and retail space will further spur the company’s expansion. The humidor will be the main attraction, boasting a volume of 68,000 cubic feet and housing more than 750,000 cigars. The indoor bar will have 42 beers on tap, as well as seating for over 200 patrons. All in all, this project represents a major milestone in the evolution of Cigar Page.

“Our team’s vision was to build the ‘Big House of Cigars,’ creating the ultimate destination for handmade cigar enthusiasts – a sensory experience expansive in scope, yet warm and inviting. One that combines industry-lowest prices with exceptional service,” said Keith Meier, Founder and CEO.

“We’ve built an incredible online community of cigar lovers, and this new headquarters is more than a building, it will bring that same passion, connection, and culture into the real world,” added Alex Goldman, COO.
