RJR claims its merchandising program allows retailers to "sell not only more R.J. Reynolds tobacco products, but also to increase retailer''s sales in the entire tobacco category and total overall store sales," said Jim Boehm, senior manager of trade marketing."Philip Morris competes vigorously, but is in compliance with the law, and Retail Leaders is no exception," said PM rep Mike Pfeil.
