Product placement is a promotional tactic used by marketers in which a real commercial product is used in fictional or non-fictional media, and the presence of the product is a result of an economic exchange. When featuring a product is not part of an economic exchange, it is called a product plug. Product placement also occurs with the inclusion of a brand's logo, or a favorable mention or appearance of a product.
Some real-world products have appeared in the fictional world of Heroes.
