About us
IQOS belongs to Philip Morris International (PMI), one of the world’s leading tobacco companies. Premium tobacco is what PMI does best – six of the top 15 international brands in the world sit within PMI portfolio. But tomorrow looks different. Innovation is key – it all started with a dream to replace cigarettes with better alternatives for adults who would otherwise continue to smoke or use other nicotine products. PMI found the best scientists, invested billions of dollars and spent almost 10 years perfecting the IQOS design, science and technology that you know today. There are already over 12.7 million IQOS users worldwide, each having successfully switched to IQOS and left cigarettes behind*.
