You Are Mistaken If You Believe These Companies Are Still American

Lucky Strike

According to my research, the most popular American cigarette brand is Lucky Strike (commonly known as Luckies). People smoked the product in the 1930s and 1940s due to the product’s effective marketing strategy. Because of this, the brand quickly rose to the top of the cigarette industry’s sales rankings. British American Tobacco was the first company with which the company did business in 1976. American Tobacco Company and its subsidiaries Lucky Strike and Pall Mall were purchased by the UK firm in 1994. In spite of the fact that it has gone through a lot of transformations, it is still seen as a symbol of America. To some extent, this is due to its popularity in popular culture. Mad Men had a lot of references to this company.

Budweiser

Some people believe that when it comes to beer, you can’t get more American than this. Even though it was started in Missouri and the container continues to state “America,” this corporation is no longer American, despite the fact that. Belgian brewer InBev paid $52 billion in 2008 to purchase the company. While it may have a strong American identity in the past, its present and future are very different. Whatever the case may be, we are relieved that the parent firm has not altered the recipe. It still has the same flavor as before!
