When I was preparing for interviews at Philip Morris Sales and Marketing, the first thing I did was ask friends and acquaintances about working at this company. Everyone said with one voice that this is an amazing marketing school. And they were right. Already at the stage of the first interview, it became clear that in front of me were real professionals in their field.
It is true that marketing in the tobacco industry is not like marketing in other industries. Unlike many industries, you won't be working with traditional marketing communications tools. However, you can concentrate more on the development and launch of the product itself. What also sets us apart from other companies is focus on digital communication channels (digital) and strong expertise in this area.
I work with first-class specialists. I learn from them, develop with them, and I also made real friends here. Join us!

We take a responsible approach to industrial safety and environmental protection. Industrial safety is not just one of the key indicators, it is part of our corporate culture. For several years we have been implementing projects to reduce our impact on the environment. Over the past 5 years, we have reduced our water consumption by 25% and also reduced our carbon emissions by almost 30%.

Innovation is not only about our product, equipment and technology, but also about the way we work. The continuous improvement model introduced in Production several years ago allows us to improve our internal processes and achieve our goals.

Many of those employees who once began their careers in the production departments of our factories now work all over the world, and colleagues from other branches come to us for training and advanced training.

In addition to the production and sale of cigarettes, PMI is involved in the development and commercialization of potentially reduced risk (“RPR”) products. The company's global mission is to encourage all adult smokers to switch to products that are less harmful to health than regular cigarettes. The company invests heavily in developing innovations that have the potential to significantly reduce the risk of smoking-related diseases, and in 2015 one such product, under the IQOS brand, was launched on the Russian market.

In Russia, PMI is represented by two affiliated companies: the factories of JSC Philip Morris Izhora in the Leningrad region and the branch of JSC Philip Morris Izhora, Philip Morris Kuban, in Krasnodar, as well as the organization Philip Morris Sales and Marketing LLC with about 100 branches cities of the country.

More information about the company can be found on the official website

Philip Morris Sales and Marketing LLC is one of the affiliated companies of Philip Morris International (PMI), a leading international manufacturer of tobacco products. The company operates in the field of organizing and supporting the sale of cigarettes under the FMI brand in Russia, has headquarters in Moscow and an extensive network of regional offices throughout the country. The office in Rostov-on-Don is one of the largest in Russia. The move to the building of the city's largest business center was associated with the renewal of the company's network of Russian offices.

Business task:
The customer immediately clearly formulated the goals of the project: the new workspace should further unite the work team and help employees in effective teamwork. In addition, serious attention was paid to the environmental friendliness of the solutions used.

Organization of space:
The business center building has an irregular shape with a complex rounded all-glass facade. This imposed serious restrictions on layout and design. In addition, the customer wanted to install a mezzanine in that part of the office where there was a significant difference in height between the floors. To realize this plan, serious work was carried out to prepare a constructive project and coordinate it with all authorities. The complexity of the work is also associated with the tight deadlines for design and construction. An additional difficulty was that Philip Morris Sales and Marketing was the first tenant of the business center. Accordingly, all approval processes with the operation service had to be established from scratch.

The architects proposed planning solutions that, on the one hand, allow optimizing the space of the premises, and on the other, provide the highest possible comfort and convenience for employees.

Much attention was paid to the principle of “transparency” of spaces. For example, all offices contain glass elements.

In order to provide employees with more space for informal communication, spacious recreational areas were designed, including coffee points, a cafeteria and a games area.

Design idea:
The main design motif of the interior of the company's new office was the theme of Formula 1 auto racing - as a vivid and clear example of well-coordinated teamwork.

The entire interior is designed in a free, playful style - with neutral colors in work areas and bright accents in places of informal communication.

Lighting design:
When designing the office, special attention was paid to effective lighting and ceiling design, thanks to which rooms of different shapes, due to the complex configuration of the building, are visually connected together.

Working on the project was incredibly difficult - the main stage of designing architecture and engineering systems coincided with the implementation of the project on site, and all work was completed in no more than two months. Many design solutions had to be adapted locally. In many ways, this task was achieved thanks to the customer’s full involvement in the process and extremely prompt response on his part, as well as the incredibly coordinated work of all those who were directly involved in the implementation of the project. We got a building of a very complex and non-trivial shape. A separate task was the design of the ceiling and the creation of a mezzanine for the informal area.

Philip Morris International is one of the largest tobacco companies in the world. Part of the Altria Group. On March 28, 2008, it was separated into an independent company. The headquarters is located in Lausanne (Switzerland). The most famous brands produced are: “Marlboro”, “Parliament”, “Bond”, “Chesterfield” “L&M”.

The history of the now world-famous company dates back to the moment Philip Morris opened his only store selling tobacco and cigarettes in 1847 in London on Bond Street.

When Mr Morris died, his wife Margaret and brother Leopold inherited the business. In 1881 the company became famous. Leopold Morris and Joseph Grunebaum formed Philip Morris & Company and Grunebaum, Ltd. In 1885, these partnerships were terminated and the company was renamed Philip Morris & Co., Ltd.

The company emerged from the control of its founding family in 1894, when William Curtis Thomson and his family took over. Under Thomson, the company had the honor of supplying tobacco products to the royal court of Edward VII, and in 1902 it was incorporated as a corporation in New York by Gustav Eckmeyer. The company was owned half by an English founder and half by American partners. Beginning in 1872, Eckmeyer imported and sold cigarettes made in England, being the sole representative of Philip Morris in the United States.

1919 was a turning point for the company. It was marked by the fact that Philip Morris received a crown emblem, the Philip Morris Company in the USA was acquired by a company owned by American shareholders, and the new corporation was registered in the state of Virginia under the name Philip Morris & Co., Ltd., Inc. By the end of the next decade, the company began producing cigarettes at its Richmond, Virginia factory; and in 1924, the Marlboro cigarette brand appeared, which later became one of the company’s most famous brands.

Having gained a strong position in the United States, the management of Philip Morris Incorporated decided to distribute its products throughout the world. Philip Morris (Australia) Ltd was formed in 1954, followed a year later by Philip Morris Overseas, which became Philip Morris International in 1961.

This opened up broad horizons for an impressive expansion of sales markets through the conclusion of licensing agreements and the rapid expansion of the company's subsidiaries around the world. In 1963, our first branch in Europe appeared - Swiss Fabriques de Tabac Reunies. Further more.

By 1972, Philip Morris International's sales reached 113 billion units; By this time, production and distribution had been established in many markets around the world. For distribution in the territory of the former Soviet Union, the company's specialists developed cigarettes based on the American bag, and by 1977 access to the sales market located behind the Iron Curtain was opened.

Philip Morris International began its work in Russia back in Soviet times, after an agreement was signed in the mid-1970s to produce Marlboro cigarettes and the new Soyuz Apollo brand in the USSR for the domestic market.

From 1977 to 1986, Marlboro cigarettes were produced under license by five Soviet tobacco factories in Moscow, Leningrad, Chisinau, Baku and Sukhumi.

In 1992, PMI Investment Corporation and the State Property Management Committee of the Leningrad Region established the Philip Morris Neva joint venture, 90% of the authorized capital of which went to a foreign company. The joint venture rented the production facilities of the Volna plant, on the basis of which cigarette production began in September 1994. Philip Morris International acquired its first own production plant in Russia in 1993, having privatized 49% of the shares of the Krasnodartabakprom tobacco factory. In the same year, PMI increased its share in the capital of Krasnodartabakprom to a controlling share and renamed the factory Philip Morris Kuban. In February 2000, a new PMI tobacco factory, called Philip Morris Izhora, opened in the Leningrad region, and therefore the need for the existence of the Philip Morris Neva enterprise disappeared and in 2002 this factory was closed.

In 2014, the company supplied 84.9 billion cigarettes to the Russian market, which is 3.5% less than a year earlier. Revenue in 2014 decreased by 4.6% (including losses from exchange rate fluctuations). In the first quarter of 2015, Philip Morris International's revenue decreased by 2.4% compared to the same period last year and amounted to $17.35 billion. Profit also fell to $1.8 billion and $1.16 per share versus $1.88 billion and $1.18 per share in the first quarter of 2014.

The Swiss brand Philip Morris is the world's largest manufacturer of tobacco products. The company owns several famous trademarks, including Bond, Parliament, L&M. The brand's tobacco products are sold in 180 countries around the world. As of 2016, Philip Morris controls more than 20% of the international cigarette market. Until 2008, the organization was part of the American corporation Altria Group, and then became independent.

The brand dates back to 1847, with the opening of the first cigarette store by Philip Morris. Until 1894, the brand was under the control of the Morris family, and later acquired a new owner. Since 1902, the company's tobacco products have been available to American customers through the opening of a branch in this country. The company's heyday dates back to the 50s, when the Marlboro cigarette brand gained worldwide popularity.

The annual sales volume of this brand reaches 113 billion units. In 1989, operating profit exceeded $1 billion, and in 2002, $5.7 billion. The US market share is growing by more than 1% annually. In 2015, this figure was about 16.7%. The brand's head office is located in Lausanne. Since 2010, subsidiaries have been operating in Russia.

Features of Philip Morris shares

Thanks to the listing, the company annually attracts funds from foreign traders, the total volume of which exceeded $10 billion. This figure is explained by the great popularity of Philip Morris products around the world.

Financial results. The strengthening of the US national currency affected the volume of revenue received outside the country in 2015. Overall revenue declined due to the decline in the dollar value of tobacco products. At the same time, sales volume exceeded the same figure for 2014 by 1.4%. This allowed the brand to avoid losses and show a slight increase in the value of shares and dividend income to investors. The publication of earnings reports showed a 6.75% increase in stock quotes.
Concluding agreements with other manufacturers. Thanks to the deal with Rothmans, sales of the brand's tobacco products exceeded 869 billion. This brought a record profit for 2013 of $10 billion. In 2016, it is planned to sign a number of agreements with the largest producers in Scandinavia and Latin America.
Expansion of the range of products. Due to the popularity of smokeless tobacco products, in 2013 the company launched a project to develop and mass produce electronic cigarettes. Significant coverage of this market share will allow the brand to gain new customers and increase net profit, which can significantly affect the growth of stock prices.
Opening of new representative offices. The creation of additional branches of the corporation makes it possible to more effectively implement marketing policies and successfully compete with other manufacturers. In 2016, it is planned to expand the dealer network in Russia, Armenia and Moldova.
Application of new technologies. A project for the production of tobacco with reduced nicotine content has been launched. Its successful implementation will increase the share of product buyers.

Crisis phenomena in the global economy will not allow traders to make significant profits from investing in Philip Morris shares. However, they can become a promising asset for long-term investment.
