Originally founded in 1847, PMI are building our future on replacing cigarettes with smoke-free products that—whilst not risk-free—are a better alternative than cigarette smoking. It’s the biggest shift in PMI’s history. And it’s the right one for consumers and society. PMI have recently transformed their marketing and media organisations towards greater centralisation, they are looking to enhance and scale the quality and delivery in every market.

The organization is investing heavily in a “smoke-free future”, a move that will see over 50% of their revenue coming from Smokeless by 2025. This accounts for a significant growth opportunity for the organization, both with PMI`s Smoke Free Products (SFP) as well as even respiratory drug delivery.
