Our businesses generate solid cash flow which we use to finance acquisitions, increase brand support, expand our distribution infrastructure and strengthen our capital position. Our Smokeless segment is driven by the Stoker`s® brand with a proud heritage dating to 1940. Stoker`s competes in the chewing tobacco segment, where it has grown to the #2 position, and in the moist snuff segment, where it remains one of the fastest-growing brands. The portfolio also includes Beech-Nut®, launched in 1897, and a diverse collection of other chewing tobacco brands that offer a variety of consumer choices and tastes. Our Smoking portfolio includes the world-famous Zig-Zag® brand, with a proud heritage of leadership dating to 1879. Winner of the 1900 World`s Fair Gold Medal for being the first interleaved rolling paper, it remains the leading premium paper in both the United States and Canada today. Over the past decade, Zig-Zag® has successfully expanded its consumer franchise into new product categories such as Make-Your-Own (MYO) cigar wraps, hemp paper and paper cones. Our NewGen vapor portfolio includes our B2B (Vapor Beast®), B2C (International Vapor Group®) vape distribution platforms along with our new product development engine Nu-X Ventures.

Homeis was created to help people like us, who belong here and there, and feel that the Internet is undeserving them. We’ve witnessed how difficult it is for local foreign-born communities to digitally connect, share their culture, their local knowledge, and unique context.
We`re dog people. Crazy dog people. BARK (that`s us) launched in 2012 with BarkBox, our monthly themed subscription of all-natural treats and clever toys. Since then, we`ve shipped more than 70 million of our favorite things to the dogs in our pack, and we`ve used that accumulated expertise to create our own products, experiences, and content. At BARK, we know that dogs aren`t pets; they`re family. Our people, crazy dog people, believe that their dogs deserve the best. The best treats, the best toys, the best seat on the couch. Together, we`re driven to be the people our dogs think we are.
