PMI is an Equal Opportunity Employer. PMI is headquartered in Stamford, Conn., and its U.S. affiliates have more than 2,300 employees. PMI has been an entirely separate company from Altria and Philip Morris USA since 2008. PMI's affiliates first entered the U.S. market following the company's acquisition of Swedish Match in late 2022. Philip Morris International and its U.S. affiliates are working to deliver a smoke-free future. Since 2008, PMI has invested $12.5 billion globally to develop, scientifically substantiate, and commercialize innovative smoke-free products for adults who would otherwise continue to smoke with the goal of transitioning legal-age consumers who smoke to better alternatives. In 2022, PMI acquired Swedish Match – a leader in oral nicotine delivery – creating a global smoke-free champion led by the IQOS and ZYN brands. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has authorized versions of PMI's IQOS electronically heated tobacco devices and Swedish Match's General Snus as Modified Risk Tobacco Products, and renewal applications for these products are presently pending before the FDA.
