Executive summary
Low percentage of Swedish male smokers
The total number of smokers has continued to decrease, with Swedish men the best in Europe at giving up smoking. This is due to the high percentage of snus users, predominantly males. The usage of snus continues to grow, with economy snus brands having a big impact in 2005.
Smoking prohibited in bars and restaurants
Smoking has been prohibited in restaurants, bars, etc, since 1 June 2005. Following the implementation of the law in Ireland and other countries, smoking where food and drinks are served is now forbidden in Sweden. A separate smoking area may be provided, but no food or drinks are to be allowed in this area.
Small cigarette packs now prohibited
The sale of cigarette packs containing fewer than 19 units has been prohibited since 1 January 2006. Smaller cigarette packs have been perceived as more accessible for young people who may start smoking as a consequence. Restrictions on this pack size are believed to decrease the number of young smokers.
Sales of RYO tobacco decrease
Sales of RYO tobacco declined even more in 2005 as a new sales tax was applied. Some tobacco outlets have stopped selling RYO tobacco completely. Pipe tobacco and cigars also showed decline over the review period.
Advertising and sponsoring greatly restricted
No advertising is permitted in Sweden outside tobacconists, restricting advertising to the interior of these outlets only. Furthermore, no sponsoring of events is allowed in a way which associates them with tobacco manufacturers. This makes it difficult to promote new products such as the new nicotine chewing gum introduced by Swedish Match.
