22nd Century Group Launches New Private Label Cigarette Brand "Pinnacle
22nd Century Group launches a new cigarette brand, Pinnacle, in partnership with a US convenience store chain.

According to news on April 18th, the 22nd Century Group has begun producing a new in-house premium cigarette brand called "Pinnacle" under a new manufacturing agreement. Pinnacle is being sold at a convenience store chain in the United States that operates nearly 1,700 stores across 27 states.


John Miller, the CEO of the tobacco products division of 22nd Century Group, stated in a press release: "We are pleased to introduce a new store brand product and partner with one of the largest convenience store chains in the United States, which is also one of the highest sales volume cigarette sales points per square foot in each store.


The 22nd Century Group has announced the brand name for their new Pinnacle product line, which features their previously-disclosed tobacco formula. Pinnacle is being manufactured at a facility in North Carolina, and has received approval in twenty-two states. Of licensed retailers, nearly half are currently qualified to stock Pinnacle, and availability is expected to increase as production ramps up.


James Mish, CEO of the 22nd Century Group, stated that Pinnacle presents an important opportunity to further increase their revenue and profitability, which will help the company achieve their goal of positive cash flow operations.

The UK government plans to expand the scope of its e-cigarette ban to include playgrounds, off-campus areas, and areas outside hospitals.
Government plans would ban vaping in cars carrying children and restrict smoking, vaping and heated tobacco in settings including playgrounds and outside schools across England, subject to a 12-week public consultation. The proposals also say indoor spaces where smoking is already banned would become vape- and heated-tobacco-free, and areas outside hospitals would be included.
