Persistent inflation is causing consumers to cut back on discretionary spending and trade down from premium brands like Marlboro to cheaper alternatives. This trend has increased the discount category's retail share by 2.6 points year-over-year, negatively impacting sales volumes for Altria's high-margin products and creating a need for better pricing analytics and customer retention tools.
