Why MDC stocks Foundry
Nobody buys Chillin' Moose to impress a sommelier - they buy it because it's a well-made, easygoing cigar with a moose on the band and a price that makes it a no-brainer. That combination turns inventory faster than almost anything else in the value tier, which is exactly why Foundry has a permanent seat in the MDC rotation.
MDC keeps 18 active Foundry SKUs in rotation, all in the Chillin' Moose family: the Original, Chillin' Moose Too, the big-ring Bull Moose (natural and maduro), and the Connecticut-wrapped Shady Moose. Every SKU comes in 20-count boxes at some of the lowest per-stick wholesale costs on the MDC line card.
“Foundry is in our standing rotation because the accounts we serve - from casinos to cigar bars - sell through it consistently. That's the only reason a brand stays on our line card.”

Venue Fit
Which venues stock Foundry
Chillin' Moose is built for high-volume, low-fuss settings. Golf courses are the sweet spot - the big Bull Moose formats last a full round, the price fits a cart-and-cigar impulse buy, and the branding gets a laugh on the first tee. Driving ranges, marinas, casino floor bars, and event programs all run it as the everyday stick. Liquor stores and c-store humidors move it on price and shelf personality. It is the definition of a turn-and-earn SKU.
The retail margin math for Foundry
MDC's active Foundry SKUs run roughly $82–$132 per box wholesale - the tightest, lowest price band of any brand page on this site, working out to just a few dollars per stick. Venues typically retail at 1.8x–2.5x wholesale, which keeps Chillin' Moose under the ten-dollar retail line in most formats while still throwing off healthy percentage margin on every box.
How to build a Foundry program with MDC
The MDC approach to any brand is the same: start with a curated core rotation sized to your venue, prove sell-through, then layer in deeper SKU coverage as the account matures. For a typical hospitality account, a Foundry program begins with 2–3 vitolas across 40–60 cigars of opening depth, paired with the other brands that complement your overall humidor structure.
Because Foundry is one of the core workhorse brands in the category, it's almost always part of the MDC opening-proposal for any new account - the exact SKUs and depth vary by whether you're running a bar-led hospitality program, a dedicated cigar lounge, or a pro-shop display. Your rep builds the proposal fast once you apply, with real numbers keyed to your venue.
