glo tobacco heating device

The glo brand is a major player in the heated tobacco industry, offering a smoke-free alternative to traditional cigarettes. It was developed by British American Tobacco (BAT) as part of its strategy to focus on reduced-risk products. The brand originated in the United Kingdom and was first launched in Japan in 2016, where it gained significant popularity before expanding to global markets.

While the brand's research, development, and strategic management are centered in the United Kingdom, the physical manufacturing of the electronic glo devices and their components primarily takes place in China. The specialized tobacco sticks used with the device, known as Neo or Kent Neostiks, are manufactured in various BAT facilities worldwide, including locations in Europe and Asia, to serve local markets.

Globally, the glo brand is owned and operated by British American Tobacco (BAT), one of the world's largest multi-category consumer goods companies. Headquartered in London, BAT manages a vast portfolio of tobacco and nicotine products. The company continues to invest heavily in science and innovation to further its 'A Better Tomorrow' purpose, aiming to reduce the health impact of its business through the global sale of vapor and heated tobacco products like glo.
