Consumer staples SIC 2111 - Cigarettes Nasdaq

22nd Century Group, Inc. is a tobacco products company that enables cigarette smokers to take control of their consumption of nicotine, the addictive drug in cigarettes. We manufacture and distribute the only combustible tobacco products containing minimally or non-addictive levels of nicotine that are authorized by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for retail purchase. We also provide turnkey contract manufacturing of cigarettes and filtered cigars for other established tobacco brands.

We created our flagship product, the VLN® cigarette, to give traditional cigarette smokers an authentic and familiar alternative that helps them decide their consumption of nicotine. VLN® cigarettes have 95% less nicotine than the traditional cigarette and have been proven to greatly reduce nicotine consumption. Instead of offering new ways of delivering the nicotine drug to addicted smokers, we offer smokers the option to make their own informed and health conscious productive choices, including the choice to avoid addictive levels of nicotine altogether and help adult smokers smoke less.
