Manufacturer profile
A tobacco and nicotine group with cigarette, heated tobacco, vapour and modern oral product businesses.
Overview
British American Tobacco (BAT) is a consumer goods business founded in 1902. Its tobacco and nicotine portfolio combines cigarettes with heated tobacco, vapour and modern oral products. The group’s corporate business overview identifies Velo, Vuse and glo as key brands in these newer product categories.
BAT’s manufacturing network covers cigarette production, tobacco-heating sticks, modern oral products and vapour liquids. Its manufacturing statement distinguishes company-owned sites from third-party factories, with the latter also used for newer product categories. This provides a group-level picture of production rather than a single-factory service profile.
The official manufacturing page describes factory adaptation for product development, including changes in Romania and South Korea for glo tobacco-heating sticks. The corporate site also provides a global directory and central contact routes. Its general website contact channel has an explicit restriction on enquiries about establishing new business or supplier relationships.
