Actually, they did. Phillip Morris trying to break into the Japanese market is like Japan Tobacco Inc. trying to break into the US market. I used to work for an ad company and their big client was JT. They actually paid me and others to go buy their own cigarettes from grocery stores around the Los Angeles area so the grocery stores would continue stocking it on the shelves. It worked for a while, but Phillip Morris (now Altria) muscled the competition off the shelves.
