Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corporation Company Profile
If Brown & Williamson Tobacco can't convince you that smoking is Kool, it's not for a lack of trying. Led by its Kool brand, the British American Tobacco unit makes more than a dozen brands, from bargain smoke GPC to the classic Lucky Strike. Other brands include Pall Mall and Capri. Brown & Williamson is #3 in the US (behind Philip Morris USA and R.J. Reynolds), with about 10% of the cigarette market. The company operates a R&D center in Macon, Georgia. In October 2003 Brown & Williamson announced plans to merge with R.J. Reynolds' US tobacco business (RJRT) to form a new public company.
