# How to read a record — Companies holding an active Texas tobacco retailer permit

> What the record is, what the status means, and what is left out.

## How to read these records

### The record

A store selling cigarettes or tobacco products in Texas holds a retailer permit from the Comptroller, one per location. The Comptroller publishes the active permits.

### Status

Active cigarette / tobacco retailer permit. One record per outlet: a chain appears once for each store.

### What is not here

Individuals, and any name without a company word (Inc, LLC, Corp, Co…). Owner and contact names, phone numbers
and mailing addresses, which this site never downloads.

**For owners and managers: does
your company have 30 to 200 employees?**

AI labs pay companies to license their internal workflows (SOPs,
documentation, support tickets), anonymized and under contract. You keep ownership and pay nothing.
