Imperial Brands delivered a solid performance for the first half of the year ended 31st March 2024, boosted by an improved scale in its existing footprint and a further step-up in innovation across all next-generation product (NGP) categories – with additional launches expected in the second half.
During the presentation of its first-half financial results, the UK-based tobacco giant announced that, in the vapour segment, it saw a successful launch and roll-out in Europe of a new disposable device under the Blu brand.
