PROFILE |
 |
It's not smoke getting in your eyes that makes the business of Rothmans a bit hard to follow. The company owns 60% of Rothmans, Benson & Hedges (RBH). (Philip Morris owns 40%.) RBH, Canada's #2 tobacco firm (Imperial is #1), makes and distributes cigarettes and roll-your-own tobaccos under top brands Craven "A" and Rothmans, as well as Belvedere, Benson and Hedges, Dunhill (licensed), Mark Ten, Number 7, Rockport, and Viscount. RBH also distributes mini-cigars and pipe tobacco (Captain Black, Sail). Rothmans hopes to increase its some 20% share of the Canadian market by such marketing promotions as gaining exclusive distribution rights in selected bars and nightclubs and sponsoring high profile arts events.
