Exclusive Cigar Manufacturing Ireland ( ECMI ) Limited was the first trader in Ireland to dispatch duty-suspended goods electronically since the introduction of the EMCS system on 1st April 2010.

ECMI have been producing quality cigars in Ballaghaderreen, Co. Roscommon for over 35 years. ECMI is very proud of its long history of export, with almost 100% of their production destined for international wholesale and distribution. It is very fitting that a company with its focus so clearly on export should be the first to dispatch duty-suspended goods electronically.

ECMI dispatched a shipment of their exclusive cigars to Portugal today (8th April 2010) at 12:30 using Thyme-IT's EMCS-compliant solution. Kathleen Regan of ECMI said "We are delighted to be the first company in Ireland to dispatch goods electronically and are relieved that it was so easy. All information entered is validated in advance by Thyme-IT so you know that it is valid before transmission. The Thyme-IT system is very easy to use and the support from Thyme-IT has been excellent!".
