Our Business

Currently, the company employs more than 800 highly qualified professionals, one in four of whom is a top-level specialist with extensive experience in the tobacco industry.

Between 2005 and 2024, the tobacco factory invested an amount equivalent to 250 million US dollars in production development and significantly increased its productivity.

A significant portion of the investments was made between 2008 and 2011, when new cigarette packaging lines—unprecedented in Belarus—were installed. Cooperation with global tobacco companies and the modernization of production allowed the factory to significantly improve the quality and increase the volume of its output.

The factory produces around 100 varieties of its own and contract cigarette brands, 17 types of hookah tobacco, fine-cut smoking tobacco, various modifications of filter rods for cigarettes of all formats, and the organic fertilizer “Tobacco Dust”

To ensure compliance with technological process requirements and to improve working conditions for the staff, the production facilities are equipped with air conditioning systems that maintain consistent microclimate parameters.

The installed aspiration and dust removal system, combined with the wet source purification system, has eliminated 99.5% of emissions of foreign odors and solid particles into the atmosphere. This has significantly improved the environmental situation around the factory, which is located within the city limits, in close proximity to a residential private sector. The State Committee for Science and Technology of the Republic of Belarus has included Grodno Tobacco Factory “Neman” in the register of high-tech enterprises of Belarus.

The quality management systems for the development and production of filter cigarettes, non-filter cigarettes, cigarette filter rods, hookah tobacco, fine-cut smoking tobacco, as well as occupational health and safety and environmental protection management systems, comply with the highest international standards. Their compliance is confirmed by certificates of conformity to STB ISO 9001-2015, STB 18001-2009, and STB ISO 14001-2005.
