Do you absolutely need 100?  Would around 50 be acceptable?

Clarification of Question by steve1901-ga on 10 Nov 2005 15:21 PST

According to a University web article [Spring 2005 North Carolina in
the global Economy] there are 120 small independent tobacco companies
in the US [as opposed to the majors like Philip Morris, Reynolds
America, Lorillard, etc.] I contacted the professor who wrote the
article but he never responded. Therefore, I'm not sure there are 100
+/-. So yes, 50 would be acceptable. I am only interested in those
companies that have the ability to manufacture cigarettes as opposed
to merely wholesaling or retailing cigarettes made by someone else. My
goal is to find a company that will manufacture a tobacco product for
me on a private label basis. The University by the way was Duke and
the professor's name was Gary Gereffi.

Hello.

Okay, I have compiled an extensive list of U.S. cigarette
manufacturers and the brands which they make.  I have (to the best of
my ability) excluded wholesalers, distributors, importers and major
manufacturers.  I have included websites for the manufacturers that
have websites.  Telephone and fax numbers for many of the companies
are listed in the last three sources (Cigarette Yellow Pages, Tobacco
Industry & Tobacco Companies) at the bottom of the page.

You're welcome.

Just what I was looking for and a prompt response.

Hello steve1901,

You did a really great job here.  That's what I've been seeking for all the tiime.

Would you also provide the same material (names, addresses, tel#, fax
#,  and/or websites) for all cigarette manufacturers in Canada? 
Wholesalers and retailers are not required, only those who produce
cigarettes.

As well, I need a list of all Tear Tape manufacturers, wholesalers and
retailers in both USA and Canada.

Thank you a lot.
