Agricultural Department of Statistics, and Economic Agriculture Cooperatives Service Report No. 4 51 THE U.S. FOOD AND TOBACCO MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES: MARKET STRUCTURE, STRUCTURAL CHANGE, AND ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE. By John M. Connor, National Economics Division; Economics, Statistics, and Cooperatives Service; U.S. Department of Agriculture. Agricultural Economic Report No. 451. ABSTRACT The major conclusions the National Commission on Food Marketing made in 1966 about trends in the industrial organization of the U.S. food manufacturing industries are still valid. Company numbers are declining, average market concentration is among the highest in the manufacturing sector and is rising, product diversification has risen, food advertising has more than doubled, and the profitability of very large firms has remained higher than that of smaller firms. Foreign investment is substantial and rapidly growing, most food media advertising is on TV, profit rates have risen by over 50 percent in the last 25 years, and the monopoly overcharge on processed foods is about 10 percent. Keywords: competition, food manufacturing, tobacco manufacturing. Industrial organization, market structure, performance, monopoly, oligopoly, conglomerate firms The names of proprietary firms and brand names are used in this publication to report facts on available data. The Department neither guarantees nor warrants these names and products and implies no approval of the products to the exclusion of others which may also be suitable.

This report confirms long-term structural trends in the food and tobacco manufacturing industries, as first identified by the National Commission on Food Marketing in its 1966 study. These trends, which reinforce the market power of the largest firms, include: . The number of firms is declining by about 3 percent per year, . The numbers of mergers, industry concentration, product diversification into and out of industries, and product differentiation are all increasing. The profitability of firms with assets over $100 million was higher than for smaller firms in most years. •Other trends identified by this report were: . Foreign investment in U.S. food and tobacco manufacturing firms is large ($1.8 billion in 1975) and is rising rapidly; investment by U.S. firms abroad ($4.7 billion) is rising less rapidly. TV advertising of food products accounts for over 50 percent of all media advertising, and is increasing. Profit rates for food and tobacco industries exceeded the rates for the rest of manufacturing for the first time during the early seventies. Wliolesale prices of food products are elevated an average of 10 percent by the oligopolistic structure of food manufacturing. • The 200 largest food and tobacco manufacturing firms account for two-thirds of industry sales, over four-fifths of industry assets, four-fifths of all media advertising, and over 96 percent of all research and development. iv The U.S. Food and Tobacco Manufacturing Industries: Market Structure, Structural Change, and Economic Performance John M. Connor * INTRODUCTION It has been 15 years since the National Commission of Food Marketing (NCFM) issued its final report and a series of oft-quoted technical studies on the industrial organization of several food subsectors and industries. This present report updates some of the data and examines the validity of some of the major conclusions of Technical Study No. 8 of that series, The Structure of Food Manufacturing. This report, like the ÑGFM study, focuses on those elements of industry structure t-hat affect ecoipmic performance: firm numbers and distribution, product and geographic diven^fication, and product differentiation. The structure of many of the food manufacturing industries has changed significantly since the early sixties. These changes were brought about by the enormous merger wave of the late sixties, the appearance of highly diverse conglomerate firms, and an acceleration in the multinat^ional investments of food firms. Thus, this report will examine changes in food industry organization during 1950-75, but especially the latter half oí that period, using data from two majo-r sources. The first group of sources is data collected by the Bureau of the Census, the Internal Revenue Service (1RS), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and other govern- ment ^Lgen'cies. The publication of the 1972 Census of Manufacturers, some parts of which'i^^re-5tily released in late 1977, is one occasion for this report. The second major data source is the Directory of the 200 Largest U.S. Food and Tobacco Processing Firms 1975 (16). This directory relied on published and purchased data to identify those companies, both domestic and foreign-owned, with the greatest sales of food and tobacco products processed in the United States in 1975. Because market structure data taÈe so long to generate, 1975 was chosen as the terminal year for this study to main- tain comparability among sources. By drawing on such a diverse set of data sources, this report assesses the particular strengths and limitations of the various sources and the extent to which they may complement one another. Focusing on the largest companies, the report examines how the structure and performance of many food industries are dominated by the operations of their leading firms. The report will also be useful to policymakers considering public policy options dealing with nodes of market power in the food system. * John M. Connor is an agricultural economist with ESCS and at the time the manuscript was completed was Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Agricultural Economics c€ the Universi*€-y of Wisconsin at I^dison.

  • Monograph 21. the Economics of Tobacco and Tobacco Control
    Monograph 21: The Economics of Tobacco and Tobacco Control Section 6 Economic and Other Implications of Tobacco Control Chapter 15 Employment Impact of Tobacco Control 543 Chapter 15 Employment Impact of Tobacco Control Adoption and implementation of effective tobacco control policy interventions are often influenced by concerns over the potential employment impact of such policies. This chapter examines employment issues and discusses the following: . An overview of current tobacco-related employment, including employment in tobacco growing, manufacturing, wholesale and retail sales, and tobacco- expenditure-induced employment . Trends in tobacco-related employment including the shift toward low- and middle- income countries . Impact of globalization, increased workforce productivity, and new technologies on tobacco-related employment . Impact of tobacco control policies on overall employment and how this impact varies based on the type of tobacco economy in specific countries. Econometric studies show that in most countries tobacco control policies would have an overall neutral or positive effect on overall employment. In the few countries that depend heavily on tobacco exporting, global implementation of effective tobacco control policies would produce a gradual decline in employment. Around the world, employment in tobacco manufacturing has decreased primarily because of improvements in manufacturing technology, allowing more tobacco products to be manufactured by fewer workers, and by the shift from state-owned to private ownership,

  • Assessing Oregon's Retail Environment
    ASSESSING OREGON’S RETAIL ENVIRONMENT SHINING LIGHT ON TOBACCO INDUSTRY TACTICS If we thought the tobacco industry didn’t advertise anymore, it’s time to think again. This assessment shines light on how the industry spends over $100 million to promote its products in Oregon stores and to hook the next generation. DID YOU KNOW THE TOBACCO INDUSTRY SPENDS OVER $100 MILLION EACH YEAR *1 IN OREGON? Tobacco products are front and center, where people — including kids — will see them every day. To gauge what tobacco retail marketing looks like across the state, local health department staf and volunteers visited nearly 2,000 Oregon tobacco retailers in 2018. Data provide striking information about how the tobacco industry pushes its deadly products across Oregon. The fndings are clear: The tobacco industry is aggressively marketing to people in Oregon, and especially targets youth, communities of color and people living with lower incomes. This report outlines fndings from the retail assessment and explores ways Oregon communities can reduce tobacco marketing, help people who smoke quit, and keep youth from starting — and ultimately save thousands of Oregon lives each year. * This amount does not include spending on advertising and marketing of e-cigarettes, for which statewide data is not yet available. When added in, this number climbs even higher. THE TOBACCO INDUSTRY SPENDS BILLIONS TO RECRUIT NEW CUSTOMERS. Every year, the tobacco industry spends E-cigarette companies rapidly increased their more than $8.6 billion nationally on tobacco retail advertising from $6.4 million to $115 advertising.2 When TV and billboard advertising million nationally between 2011 and 2014 for tobacco was restricted (in 1971 and 1998, alone.4 Advertising restrictions do not apply to respectively),3 the tobacco industry shifted its e-cigarettes.

  • Tobacco and the Economy: Farms, Jobs, and Communities, by H
    Tobacco and the Economy: Farms, Jobs, and Communities, By H. Frederick Gale, Jr., Linda Foreman, and Thomas Capehart, Economic Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Economic Report No. 789. Abstract Public health policies intended to reduce the incidence of smoking-related disease adversely affect thousands of tobacco farmers, manufacturers, and other businesses that produce, distribute, and sell tobacco products. This report assesses the likely impacts of declining tobacco demand, and identifies the types of workers, farms, businesses, and communities that are most vulnerable to loss of tobacco income and jobs. The dollar impact on the farm sector of a reduction in cigarette demand will be smaller than that experienced by manufacturing, wholesale, retail, and transportation businesses, but tobacco farms and their communities may have the most difficulty adjusting. Many tobacco farmers lack good alternatives to tobacco, and they have tobacco-specific equipment, buildings, and experience. Most com- munities will make the transition to a smaller tobacco industry with little difficulty, because tobacco accounts for a small share of the local economy. However, a num- ber of counties depend on tobacco for a significant share of local income. Acknowledgments The authors received helpful comments on the manuscript from Will Snell and Ron Hustedde of the University of Kentucky, Wayne Purcell of Virginia Tech, Blake Brown of North Carolina State University, and Jim Johnson of the Economic Research Service.

  • STUDENT COMMERCIAL TOBACCO USE in SCHOOLS Alternative Measures
    MINNESOTA October 2019 STUDENT COMMERCIAL TOBACCO USE IN SCHOOLS Alternative Measures School policies regulating the use and possession of commercial tobacco products,1 including electronic delivery devices (e.g., e-cigarettes, vaping devices, JUUL, Suorin), often contain punitive measures for student violations. This publication provides sample language and ideas for evidence-based solutions and information as to why these alternative measures may be more effective than suspension and expulsion at addressing student tobacco use and nicotine addiction as part of a school’s Commercial Tobacco-Free Policy. I. The tobacco industry has historically and continues to target youth to maintain profits, especially in and around schools.2 Schools should consider these predatory tactics when creating or modifying a policy to address youth possession and use of commercial tobacco in schools. When considering how to effectively address youth use and possession of commercial tobacco products in schools, it is important to understand how pervasive the industry’s targeting of youth and young adults with these highly addictive products has been for several decades. Overwhelming evidence, including the www.publichealthlawcenter.org October 2019 tobacco industry’s own documents, shows that from the 1950s to the present the tobacco industry intentionally and strategically studied and marketed commercial tobacco products to youth in order to recruit “replacement smokers” to stay in business.3 In 1981, a Philip Morris representative said, “[t]oday’s teenager is tomorrow’s potential regular customer.”4 The tobacco industry knows that “the overwhelming majority of smokers first begin to smoke while still in their teens.”5 Well-documented examples of the tobacco industry’s unethical efforts to capture the youth market are school “education programs,” which were promoted and distributed to schools in the 1980s and 1990s.
