Feb 2010

Price: US$2,000

About this Report

About this Report

Smoking tobacco saw stronger recent growth than cigarettes and cigars, due to lower prices and more favourable tax rates. Can this growth be sustained in countries where legislators are moving RYO tax rates closer to cigarette levels? Is there growth potential for RYO when sales are concentrated in Western Europe and the US with little presence in large developing countries? Big cigarette companies are launching RYO variants of global cigarette brands but will these succeed in emerging regions?
