| ----------- | -------------- | -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ---------- |
| | relationships | unknown | No source names the GS1 licensee of this barcode; prefix owner is derived from the Swiss subsidiary of the brand owner, so gs1_prefixes was not set on any company stub. | |

| | identity | unknown | Date the Swiss pack changed from Marlboro Lights to Marlboro Gold is not sourced. | ^wikipedia |

## 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]
