ATTENTION TOBACCO GROWERS
Golden Leaf Tobacco Company Would Like To Encourage You
We have increased our orders for your tobacco over the past several years and could have purchased 1 million
pounds more had it been available in 1989. Surplus government stock has been depleted and US grown tobac
co inventory is at its lowest level in years.
Our goal has been to establish a strong market for Pennsylvania 609 by personally visiting manu
facturers overseas and here in the US. Our goal has been met!
The outlook is good for 1990 as more US grown tobacco is needed for cigarette production both in the
US and overseas.
It is our desire to continue to work closely with each of you. We are daily continuing our efforts to
build the 609 tobacco demand into a lasting market that will carry into the future. Our company
prides itself on a relationship with the farmers based on honesty, integrity and loyalty. If we can be of
service to you please feel free to call.
