Originally located in Key West, Florida, Thompson Cigar first opened in 1915.  In 1920, after hurricanes decimated most of the cigar factories in Key West, original owner M.A. Thompson moved his factory to Ybor City, located in Tampa, Florida, known as "Cigar Capital of the World."  Thompson acquired Postal Permit #1 in the city of Tampa, which it still holds today.  In 1934, M.A. Thompson moved his factory to Bartow, Florida where it would remain until 1960 when the company was sold to Robert Franzblau. Franzblau relocated cigar production to local Tampa factories such as M & N Cigars and Gradiaz-Annis, which would make cigars under the Thompson brand.  Today, Thompson Cigar runs the single largest inventory storage humidor in the United States, totaling over 300,000 cubic feet.
