About the Company

Philip Morris International, Inc. (PMI) is a leading global tobacco and cigarette manufacturing company with its headquarters in New York City, USA. PMI was originally part of the larger Altria Group but became a separate publicly traded company in 2008. The company has a long history in the tobacco industry, dating back to the mid-1800s when it was founded in London, England.

 

PMI is known for its iconic cigarette brands, including Marlboro, which is one of the most recognized and best-selling cigarette brands worldwide. In recent years, PMI has been actively working on a transformative journey to reduce the health risks associated with smoking. The company has been investing heavily in the development and marketing of smoke-free products like heated tobacco devices and e-cigarettes under the brand names IQOS and MESH.

It's important to note that PMI's products have faced significant scrutiny and regulation due to health concerns associated with tobacco use.
