Executive summary
Mid Tar Cigarettes Continues to Increase
Mid tar increased at its fastest rate of the review period in 2006. With the major share of cigarettes placed in the mid tar category, mid tar played a very important role in tobacco in Pakistan. Companies continued to focus on mid tar.
PMI takes over Lakson Tobacco Co Ltd
With the additional acquisition of 50% shares, Philip Morris International currently owns 90% shares of Lakson Tobacco Co Ltd. This acquisition brings the rivalry of two tobacco multinationals – Phillip Morris International and British American Tobacco Plc – to Pakistan.
Gold Flake increases at Double-Digit Growth Rate
Gold Flake from Pakistan Tobacco Co Ltd experienced the highest growth rate in 2006. It also maintained its second position among the brands of cigarettes. Morven Gold from Lakson Tobacco maintained its review period ranking with the highest share.
Large Portion of Cigarettes Lies in Low and Ultra Low Tar
Two major brands command a large share of cigarettes in the economy price band, and there is strong focus on the ultra low and low tar categories. Even with the recent launch of two premium brands, the share of premium brands remains very low.
Pakistan in the Process of Implementing FCTC
Pakistan has ratified FCTC, and is currently in the process of implementing it. With a ban on smoking in public places and restriction on underage sales, the growth might decline. Although these laws are not currently completely implemented, they are making things complex for companies. The restrictions on marketing and sponsorships bring new challenges to tobacco in Pakistan.
