自從推出標志性的萬寶路卷煙品牌90年以來，領先的煙草公司——菲莫有限公司為英國市場推出了有史以來的第一款手卷煙。
為了保持新鮮，萬寶路金色原味（Marlboro Gold Original）手卷煙被裝在一個有三層包裝的高品質手感袋子內。零售價格也很有競爭力，建議零售價格是12.5克裝4.40英鎊和20克裝6.90英鎊，并附贈高品質的涂膠卷煙紙。
現在訂貨9月份即可交貨，這是完全由菲莫有限公司銷售、分銷和提供的第一個手卷煙產品。菲莫有限公司工廠生產的所有卷煙將繼續由帝國煙草有限公司分銷，直到2015年年底。
英國和愛爾蘭的市場營銷主管佐伊·史密斯說：“這是萬寶路品牌多年來最令人興奮的消息，我們將通過所有渠道全力支持萬寶路金色原味手卷煙在全國范圍的推出。”
“手卷煙市場在銷量和銷售額上都已取得增長，每年的銷售額將近20億英鎊，因此這是推出萬寶路手卷煙的一個理想時機。去年，幾乎一半的成人吸煙者表示喜歡手卷煙產品，而且當消費者現在可以獲得萬寶路金色原味優質手卷煙后，他們就可以從英國最優質的品牌中享受到口味和價格的完美結合。
“此外，萬寶路金色原味手卷煙將得到菲莫有限公司分布在全國的新的現場銷售人員的支持，他們目前正通過一貫的品牌參與建立可持續的零售商伙伴關系。”
萬寶路金色原味手卷煙從英國一些最引入注目的、旨在提高知名度和關注度的活動和節日的獨家預售中獲益良多。

Philip Morris Launches First Ever Rolling Tobacco
90 years since the iconic Marlboro cigarette brand was launched, leading tobacco company Philip Morris Limited has released its first ever roll your own product for the UK market.
Marlboro Gold Original rolling tobacco is presented in a premium quality tactile pouch, triple layered for freshness. Competitively priced, with an RRP of ￡4.40 for 12.5g and ￡6.90 for 20g pouch formats with high quality gummed rolling papers included.
Available to order now with deliveries in September, it is the first product to be fully sold, distributed and supported by PML. All PML's Factory Made Cigarettes will continue to be distributed by Imperial Tobacco Limited through to the end of 2015.
Marketingd director for the UK and Ireland, Zoe Smith commented: "This is the most exciting news from the Marlboro brand in many years and we will be fully supporting the launch of Marlboro Gold Original rolling tobacco nationally across all channels.
"The rolling tobacco market has grown in both volume and value to be worth almost ￡2bn a year, so this is an ideal time to launch Marlboro into the category. Last year almost half of all adult smokers stated a preference for roll your own products and as Marlboro Gold Original is now available in a premium rolling tobacco format, consumers can enjoy the perfect blend of taste and price from the UK's Number One premium brand.
"Additionally, Marlboro Gold Original rolling tobacco will be fully supported by PML's new national field force who are currently building sustainable retail partnerships through consistent brand engagement."
Marlboro Gold Original rolling tobacco has benefitted from exclusive pre-launch sales at some of the UK's most high profile events and festivals to drive awareness and trial. The launch support for the new product will also include an extensive trade media advertising campaign, cash and carry activities and retail point of sale. Enditem
