The products of Reynolds American Inc.’s operating companies (collectively referred to as Reynolds) are sold primarily through convenience retail outlets, of which nearly 183,000 outlets are on our contract. In the Retail Marketing Plan Contract (RMPC), contractual agreements with retailers, which cover 94% of the companies’ volume, retailers are required to implement and monitor age restrictions on the sale of tobacco and nicotine products by conducting age verification at point-of-sale to verify that sales occur only to those of legal age.
The Responsible Vapor Retailer program is a retailer compliance initiative designed to support the growth of vapor products while strengthening safeguards intended to prevent underage access. The program’s objective is to align participating retailers with enhanced standards for compliance, age verification, and responsible product sales.
Reynolds has supported the industry program We Card since its inception in 1995, and contractually require our retailers to commit to participating in the program. The We Card Program, Inc. is a national non-profit organization serving the nation’s retailers of tobacco and other age-restricted products. Individual retail establishments, as well as large retail chains, utilize We Card’s educational and training services to comply with federal and state laws while working to prevent underage tobacco and age-restricted product sales.
