THE TOBACCO INDUSTRY AND THE RETAIL ENVIRONMENT

Tobacco companies rely on the retail environment to reach both current and future customers by advertising their products and normalizing the presence of tobacco products in everyday life. The tobacco industry spends nearly $1 million per hour on marketing tobacco products in the retail environment, and it works - when discounts and promotions are advertised in stores, tobacco product sales go up by as much as 30%.
