Gallaher Group Plc Company Profile
When the smoke finally settles over London, Gallaher Group helps kick it up again. The #2 UK cigarette company with about half of the country's cigarette market, Gallaher makes tobacco products and sells them in Asia, continental Europe, Ireland, Russia and other former Soviet republics, and the UK. Its premium cigarettes include top UK brands Benson & Hedges and Silk Cut; mid-priced brands include Sovereign; and low-priced brands include Dorchester and Mayfair. Gallaher also makes Hamlet cigars, Amber Leaf hand-rolled tobacco, and Condor pipe tobacco. Japan Tobacco acquired the company in April 2007 for about $15 billion.
