About this Report

About this Report

The Middle East and Africa region stands out as a growing market, though with a few caveats. There is a strengthening move towards more stringent application of anti-tobacco legislation and a shift towards harsher taxation in key markets, notably Egypt. The strong presence of domestic operators provides a combination of opportunities and threats for multinationals; a situation which reflects the market overall.
