Discover where a brand or product originates
Cricket is a world-renowned brand primarily recognized for its high-quality lighters and matches. The brand originated in France in the 1960s, introducing the world's first disposable lighter. Today, it operates as a major global player in the ignition market.
While the brand has French origins, the manufacturing of its match products occurs in various locations worldwide to serve global markets, often utilizing facilities in countries like Sweden or through regional partnerships in Asia and Africa. The brand is currently owned by Swedish Match, a company based in Stockholm, which was acquired by the global giant Philip Morris International (PMI). This acquisition places Cricket under the ultimate ownership of PMI, though it continues to operate within the specialized tobacco and ignition portfolios of the Swedish Match division.
