Marlboro Gold 20 cigarettes box: version 1

Saved 2026-09-13 20:24 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added **Marlboro Gold 20 cigarettes box** (07623900205080), from the wanted list (old title "marlboro light"). - **Identity:** confirmed from the two Open Food Facts photos (front: Marlboro gold "less smell"; side: 20 Class A cigarettes, nicotine 0.5 mg, CO 7 mg, DE/FR/IT warnings, Swiss Quality Line 0800 000 707) and from Webstar (shop.webstar.ch), a Swiss wholesaler whose page prints EAN 7623900205080 as "Marlboro Gold Box T 6mg/N 0.5mg/KM 7mg" with pack dimensions 55 x 22 x 87 mm. Tar comes from Webstar because glare hides it in the photo. - **Lights → Gold:** Wikipedia (Marlboro) says Marlboro Lights are now called Marlboro Gold. "Marlboro Lights" is added as a name alias. The 2009 Barcodepedia page is cited only for its old title. - **Relations:** brand owner Philip Morris International for CH (Wikipedia: PMI owns and makes Marlboro outside the US). The gs1_prefix_owner row points to Philip Morris Products S.A., Neuchâtel, as `derived`: it is the Swiss subsidiary of the brand owner (GLEIF LEI 549300UHORIMQU0YOT80, UID CHE-105.950.151, direct and ultimate parent PMI Inc. per GLEIF), but no source names the registrant, so gs1_prefixes was left unset. - **Markets:** CH, sourced from the Webstar listing (price on request, so no price). The case code 7616400200242 (10 × 20) was not added as an alias: it is a different trade unit. - **Stubs:** brand/marlboro, company/philip-morris-international, company/philip-morris-products. - **Unresolved** (in research_gaps): prefix registrant, back panel and manufacturer, the date of the Swiss renaming, a retail pack price (tabaklaedeli.ch CHF 97.00 has no barcode and is likely a carton), and the basis of Webstar's 0.24 kg weight.. Current is v2.

9197## About <!--about-->
9298Marlboro Gold is a filter cigarette of the Marlboro brand. This barcode is on the Swiss flip-top box of 20, whose health warnings are printed in German, French and Italian and whose front carries the words "less smell".[^off] A Swiss wholesaler lists the barcode as Marlboro Gold Box with 6 mg tar, 0.5 mg nicotine and 7 mg carbon monoxide.[^webstar] Outside the United States the brand is owned and made by Philip Morris International.[^wikipedia] Its Neuchâtel subsidiary Philip Morris Products S.A. is the likely licensee of the Swiss barcode prefix, though no source names it.[^gleif-pmp]
9399 
94100The line was formerly sold as Marlboro Lights: after "Lights" and similar descriptors were barred, Marlboro switched to colour names and Lights became Marlboro Gold.[^wikipedia] The 2009 Barcodepedia page for this barcode still called it Marlboro Light.[^archive]

## About <!--about-->
Marlboro Gold is a filter cigarette of the Marlboro brand. This barcode is on the Swiss flip-top box of 20, whose health warnings are printed in German, French and Italian and whose front carries the words "less smell".[^off] A Swiss wholesaler lists the barcode as Marlboro Gold Box with 6 mg tar, 0.5 mg nicotine and 7 mg carbon monoxide.[^webstar] Outside the United States the brand is owned and made by Philip Morris International.[^wikipedia] Its Neuchâtel subsidiary Philip Morris Products S.A. is the likely licensee of the Swiss barcode prefix, though no source names it.[^gleif-pmp]

The line was formerly sold as Marlboro Lights: after "Lights" and similar descriptors were barred, Marlboro switched to colour names and Lights became Marlboro Gold.[^wikipedia] The 2009 Barcodepedia page for this barcode still called it Marlboro Light.[^archive]
