PROFILE |
 |
Altadis speaks the language of love of smoking. Born of the 1999 merger of Spain's Tabacalera and France's Societe Nationale d'Exploitation Industrielle des Tabacs et Allumettes (Seita), Altadis is the world's fourth-largest tobacco company. Its name is a hybrid of "alliance," ""tabac"," and "distribution." Altadis has a cigarette business whose brands include Ducados, Fortuna, Gauloises, and Gitanes. Its cigar operations smoke up almost 27% of the world market under such names as Farias, Hav-A-Tampa, Montecristo, and Romeo y Julieta. The company's Altadis USA holds one-third of the US cigar market. Altadis also owns 50% of Cuba's Habanos.
