J.C. 纽曼雪茄公司近期任命艾米·库克斯（Aimee Cooks）担任公司副总裁兼时钟雪茄厂的总经理职位，时钟雪茄厂（El Reloj cigar factory）位于佛罗里达州的坦帕市。库克斯将负责整个工厂的制造职能，包括从工厂发出的雪茄的运输和仓储，包括纽曼雪茄品牌和阿图罗·富恩特品牌。

工厂有足够的机器可以生产大量相对价廉的雪茄，还有一个新建的较小的生产区域可以生产手工雪茄。工厂每天可以生产6万多支雪茄。

1997年以来，库克斯一直在纽曼雪茄公司工作，最初担任公司的人力资源总监。公司总裁埃里克·纽曼 (Eric Newman) 表示：二十多年来，艾米一直是纽曼家族中重要且值得信赖的成员。

库克斯也表示，期待在挚爱的雪茄行业继续为纽曼家族工作。

J.C. Newman Cigar Co. has appointed Aimee Cooks to the new position of vice president and general manager of its El Reloj cigar factory in Tampa, Florida. Cooks will oversee all manufacturing responsibilities at the facility and will be responsible for the warehousing and shipping of the cigars that are distributed from the factory, including J.C. Newman and Arturo Fuente-brand cigars.

The J.C. Newman factory is home to artisanal machines that make a host of relatively inexpensive smokes, and a much smaller and newer operation making cigars by hand. Cooks supervises the production of more than 60,000 cigars per day at El Reloj.

Cooks has been at J.C. Newman since 1997, and began as the company’s director of human resources. “Aimee has been an important and trusted member of our family for more than two decades,” said Eric Newman, president of the company.

“I look forward to continuing working for the Newman family in the industry that I love,” said Cooks.
