PROFILE |
 |
Swedish Match doesn't want tobacco cravings completely snuffed out. The company is the world's largest maker of matches and the #3 producer of disposable lighters (Cricket), behind BIC and Itochu subsidiary Tokai. Its Red Man chewing tobacco leads the US market. Swedish Match's other tobacco offerings include pipe tobacco, snuff, and an array of cigars (#2 in the world, behind Altadis), including well-known brands El Credito, Garcia y Vega, La Paz, Montague, and Tiparillo; it owns 64% of US cigar maker General Cigar Holdings. The company makes rolling papers and cigarette filters, but it sold its cigarette division to Austria Tabak in 1999. Swedish Match's products are made in 15 countries and sold in 140 countries.
