History
The brand Levi Garrett was introduced on the US market in 1974 by Conwood Corporation of Tennessee (later acquired by Dalfort[1]). By 1981, it was already second in the US chewing tobacco market.[2] Levi Garrett became known for their sponsorship of various teams in the NASCAR Cup Series. Most notably, the Hendrick Motorsports #5 driven by Geoff Bodine and Ricky Rudd.
