BAT

British American Tobacco is the second largest cigarette company.

In 1999 it acquired Rothmans International, which included a share in a factory in Myanmar. This made it the target of criticism from human rights groups. It sold its share of the factory on November 6, 2003 after a "exceptional request" from the British government.

Brands include Dunhill, Lucky Strike, Kent, State Express 555, Rothmans, Peter Stuyvesant, Benson & Hedges, Kool, Pall Mall, Viceroy, Winfield, and John Player
