In 1938, Dunhill licensed the production of tobacco to a major company in Germany, the "German Tobacco Company Von Eicken ", in a negotiation that evolved slowly, beginning in 1926.
The curious fact is that this concession occurred during the Nazi regime and the production was until mid-1943 when the factory was bombed by the Allied forces in Hamburg.
