In a market where price has a major impact, sales of cigarillos peaked in 2020, since the price advantage of cigarillos was lost along with the tax adjustment enforced in October 2021. Now that the price of price-fighter cigarillos is as high as regular cigarettes, many consumers will no longer choose cigarillos, but will opt for economy cigarettes as an economical choice.
Fine cut tobacco is expected to maintain its positive performance throughout the forecast period, as this is a cheaper alternative to cigarettes. Due to global inflation, Japan recorded an annual inflation rate of 2.
Pipe tobacco is set to see a continuous volume decline in the forecast period, due to its old-fashioned image and the ageing consumer base. Although there are still some pipe tobacco enthusiasts, it is not a category that is attracting a new consumer base, and is unlikely to grow in the future.
