Where do Hilton cigarettes come from?

Hilton is the second largest tobacco production company in the world, and the cigarette brands produced by British American Tobacco Company are second only to Governor Dunhill among more than 300 brands of British American Tobacco Company worldwide, 555. At present, it is produced or co-produced in the global 17 countries. It was once produced in Huaying, Shandong, China, but Huaying has been controlled by Shandong General Group in essence, and Black Cat and Hilton have stopped production in China. At present, Hilton's recent origin is South Korea, and British American Tobacco's factory in South Korea also produces Hilton, but it is mainly used for export. Koreans prefer Dunhill, and Hilton cigarettes are not to their taste. Hilton cigarettes were very popular in China in 1980s. At that time, Hilton was the best cigarette that our people could easily buy. Later, with the development of national cigarette manufacturers in China and the ban on Hilton by national tobacco companies, Hilton gradually faded out of our lives. Hilton is another downwind work of British American Tobacco Company. Like Dunhill, it has nothing to do with the world-famous Hilton Group, but BAT took advantage of the loophole in the British trademark registration law at that time-the loophole that the trademark was not protected by cross-industry, and used Dunhill and Hilton. British American Tobacco's Hilton trademark was registered in the UK on 1962, and is currently registered in 87 countries around the world. At present, a large part of Hilton cigarettes sold in China mainland market are fake cigarettes, and only smuggled labels confiscated by the customs can be bought through formal channels. The so-called Hilton with words is hard to find, so I saw the words monopolized by China Tobacco Corporation, the words that smoking is harmful to health, and the tar content. Nine times out of ten, the nicotine content in cigarettes is fake cigarettes, and the other is smuggled in from a small cigarette shop by Hilton, with the largest imports from Russia and Kazakhstan. It is characterized by writing a warning in Russian on the lower part of the front of the cigarette. At present, there are only two kinds of Hilton in the world, one is the king and the other is the lamp. Soft boxes are only sold in South Africa and should not flow like China. Smugglers should also consider the cost. South Africa is too far away from us ~ we can still see 50-pack tin cans on the market. Cigarettes are real, but this bag is not the work of British American Tobacco, but the masterpiece of China Customs. This is a smuggled cigarette confiscated by the customs. The original packaging specification is to make the customs raise its price. Careful friends will understand by comparing them. A box of Hilton in ordinary packaging is only 7 yuan, but at least a can of 50 packs costs 20 yuan! I also saw a white extended Hilton with 20 white rectangular boxes, which were not produced by British American Tobacco, but contributed by fake cigarette dealers.
