The Tobacco Commission (TC) was created by Government with the mandate to regulate the production and marketing of tobacco in Malawi as set out in the Tobacco Industry Act No.10 of 2019.
As a statutory corporate body, the Commission subscribes to the principles of good corporate governance, openness, integrity and accountability, which are fundamental foundations on which effective organizations are built. The Commission falls under the Ministry of Agriculture. The Commission is driven by a Board of Commissioners which provides guidance on policy matters, and a Management team that runs the day-today affairs of the institution. Management is led by the Chief Executive Officer.
