Nasiyr Bey, owner of Aroma Cigars Etc. Lounge of Charlotte, North Carolina seems to know the direction that the wind is blowing and has embraced the power and innovation of sales processing using cryptocurrency. After researching cryptos, incorporating the digital currency based upon blockchain technology into his business model was a natural conclusion.
Bey told WCCB Charlotte,
“It is the future; everything’s going digital, technology is changing. We’re in a new age,”
“A lot of people were hesitant. They didn’t know what it was. They really was trying to understand it.”
Using a point of sale tool called Pundi X which accepts Bitcoin and Ethereum in addition to DAI, NPXS, XEM, QTUM, and BNB, credit and debit cards. Since Bey discovered that he could open this new avenue of purchase to his customers, about 20% of Aroma Cigar Lounge’s sales are conducted via Cryptocurrencies for luxurious cigars, lighters, wine, and everything else they offer including craft beer and fine liquor.
LAStyle Magazine spoke to Bey as well and wrote,
“Nasiyr informed us his Aroma Cigars brand and lounge is the only venue in the United States and the first of its kind to incorporate this new and advanced method of currency exchange.”
The changes seem to be serving Bey and the lounge well, the party on October 29th was alive with laughter, good drink, and good smoke.
Cryptocurrency Could Propel The Aroma Brand To A City Near You
While a single cigar lounge in Charlotte, NC accepting Cryptocurrency is definitely newsworthy as a first, the better news LA Style heard from Nasiyr Bey, an entrepreneur who had worked in the music industry with DefJam in NYC, as well as Def Jam South out of Charlotte, it’s only the beginning. Bey explained that,
“He wants to expand his cigar business by opening 50-100 locations worldwide, including licensing his brand out to people who want to get into the cigar industry. This includes older people who have been retired or out of the workforce for an extended period of time and want to get back into the groove of working.”
For the Charlotte businessman and his fine establishment, the future looks bright, aromatic, and accessible.
