Altria Group, Inc.
A U.S. tobacco company whose brands include Marlboro cigarettes, Black & Mild cigars, Copenhagen and Skoal smokeless tobacco, on! nicotine pouches, and NJOY e-vapor products. Its roots trace to a London tobacco shop opened by Philip Morris in 1847, and in 2003 the company renamed itself Altria, a word drawn from the Latin "altus" meaning "high" — chosen, it said, to reflect reaching higher, not the similar-sounding "altruism."
