How we operate

We operate globally, with manufacturing and sales facilities throughout the world. In total we own 59 factories in 32 countries.

Wherever we manufacture, we apply the same exacting standards to ensure the premium quality that smokers of our brands have come to expect. You can find out more about how we manufacture our cigarettes by clicking on the link on the left.

But our day-to-day operations are about more than just making cigarettes, they are also about the way we do business and interact with the world outside our offices, both locally and globally.

In every country where our cigarettes are sold, we are guided by the same basic principles.

One of our principal goals is to be a socially responsible company, at both a local and global level.

Because of this, we are passionate about our social performance:

being responsible about our products and the dangers of smoking, striving for comprehensive tobacco regulation, keeping our products away from children, and investing in the research and development of potentially less harmful products;
the fair treatment of our employees, suppliers, and customers; and
promotion of sustainable tobacco farming, the efficient use of natural resources, the reduction of waste in our manufacturing processes, eliminating child labor, and giving back to the communities in which we operate.
