Japan Tobacco International launched its Ploom X Advanced in Italy’s travel retail market at Milan Malpensa Airport.

Already available in duty-free stores in Japan and Switzerland, the product comes in a variety of device colors, sticks and accessories.

“I was excited to see JTI’s premium offer in the RRP [reduced-risk product] category taking off in Milan,” said JTI Global Travel Retail Sales Director Simone Mammi in a statement. “Our Ploom X Advanced device has been launched in Italy travel retail, alongside Camel heated-tobacco sticks, available in four flavors and tobacco intensities (gold, bronze, burgundy and teal).”

JTI noted that with Avolta as one of its longstanding retail partners at Milan Malpensa Airport, it optimized the premium front-of-category space to provide impactful showcasing that, when coupled with ongoing consumer engagement, “should deliver promising results.”

The Ploom X Advanced device was named the best product available in the heated-tobacco category at the U.K. Product of The Year Awards 2024.
