BAT is a leading company, one of the largest foreign private investors in Croatia and the only domestic manufacturer and major exporter of tobacco and nicotine products. With a broad portfolio of products across categories, BAT is dedicated to creating A Better Tomorrow™ with a vision of building a smoke-free world and a strategic goal of migrating adult smokers from cigarettes to smoke-free alternatives.
Since the acquisition of TDR in 2015, BAT has invested more than EUR 700 million in Croatia. A major investment cycle has been launched in new production lines at the Kanfanar factory. Thanks to these investments, the Kanfanar factory has become a unique factory with the widest product range in the BAT group. In recent years, BAT also invested almost EUR 19 million in strengthening sustainability throughout BAT's entire value chain in Croatia.
BAT has a unique value chain in Croatia: tobacco production in Virovitica, production in Kanfanar, a logistics center in Rijeka, a logistics hub in Pitomača, the iNovine kiosk chain and a commercial office in Zagreb from which it manages eight markets in the Adria cluster. BAT directly employs 1,500 people in Croatia and indirectly supports as many as 6,000 jobs.
