About

Bygg Foods is a Petaluma, California-based sustainable food technology company — backed by ProVeg Incubator and early-stage investors — developing upcycled plant-based protein products from spent brewing grain (the malted barley byproduct that craft breweries and large brewers discard after the brewing process), creating a circular economy approach to sustainable protein nutrition. Bygg's flagship product, NORSE CODE protein powder, blends upcycled barley protein (from spent grain) with pea and rice protein to deliver a complete amino acid profile with the environmental benefit of diverting brewery waste from landfill and generating revenue for brewery partners. Founded in 2022 by Smari Asmundsson — previously founder of Smari Organics, an Icelandic-style yogurt brand — Bygg targets the sustainable nutrition, performance supplement, and better-for-you consumer packaged goods market.

About

Altria Group, Inc. is a Richmond, Virginia-based tobacco and nicotine company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: MO) as an S&P 500 Consumer Staples component — manufacturing and selling cigarettes (Marlboro — the best-selling cigarette brand in the United States), smokeless tobacco (Copenhagen, Skoal, Red Seal, Husky chewing tobacco/moist snuff brands), oral nicotine pouches (on! brand), and maintaining a 10.7% ownership stake in Anheuser-Busch InBev (SABMiller acquisition consideration shares) and a 35% stake in JUUL Labs (vaping — original $12.8B investment written down to minimal value following JUUL's regulatory and litigation difficulties) through approximately 5,500 employees. In fiscal year 2024, Altria reported revenues of approximately $20.6 billion (net revenues after excise taxes approximately $9.7 billion), with the cigarette segment (Marlboro generating 40%+ US cigarette market share) contributing the majority of operating income at 50%+ adjusted operating margins — the highest margins in the consumer staples sector reflecting cigarettes' inelastic demand and regulated market structure. CEO Billy Gifford has pivoted Altria's strategy from cigarettes toward smoke-free nicotine products: the on! oral nicotine pouch (acquired full ownership of Helix Innovations in 2023, rebranding as on! to compete with Swedish Match Zyn, the dominant US oral nicotine pouch brand) represents Altria's primary nicotine product diversification vehicle as cigarette volume declines 7-8% annually through consumer quit rates and secular health awareness trends.
