The Myanmar Employer Awards (powered by JobNet Myanmar) congratulates British American Tobacco Myanmar for being a 2020 International Gold Winner for Best Learning And Development Program.

British American Tobacco Myanmar is a leading, multi-consumer goods business that employs around 55,000 people worldwide, with more than 200 brands in their portfolio sold in over 200 markets. Their portfolio includes our world-famous Global Drive Brands – Dunhill, Kent, Lucky Strike, Pall Mall and Rothmans – along with many other leading international brands. BAT’s establishment in Myanmar is situated in Yangon and employs more than 400 people including nationwide sub-distributors. BAT Myanmar portfolio includes Kent, Lucky Strike and London. Their key focus areas are to continuously upgrade manufacturing facilitates in line with international standards, to develop human capital and to be a transparent company that is contributing towards the local economy. The company fully supports government institutions, development agencies and trade bodies to create shared value for their consumers, society, employees and shareholders through environmental, societal and governance priorities. While cigarettes will be at the core of BAT’s business for some time to come, the company aims to generate an increasingly greater proportion of its revenues from products other than cigarettes and thereby reduce the health impact of their business. Ultimately, it’s about building towards “A Better Tomorrow” not just for BAT, but for all stakeholders.

The company took home one Gold Trophy for the 4th edition of the Myanmar Employer Awards.

The Best Learning and Development Program award recognizes companies with innovative learning and development strategy across all stages of employment.
