Stakeholder Engagement

Engaging with individuals and groups that can affect or be affected by the actions of a company should be an important part of any business, but it is especially important to Altria Group and its companies, particularly given the sensitive nature of tobacco issues. Altria Group and its companies place great importance upon outreach to stakeholders as a means of helping us learn more about the external concerns and expectations of our companies' products and practices.

External Stakeholders Altria Group and its companies actively participate in addressing societal concerns that are relevant to our business. We want to engage and communicate openly and honestly with stakeholders who can help us continue to improve in meeting society's expectations. Business Partners Altria Group and its companies invest in business partners who lead. We work to establish mutually beneficial relationships with business partners and help them take actions consistent with our Mission.
