PROSPECTS

Slower growth for open vaping systems as competition from alternatives increases

2018 witnessed steady growth in the number and percentage of vapers in Malaysia, and current value sales of e-vapour products continued to rise. However, growth was slower than in 2017.

Launch of heated tobacco products could disrupt cigarettes but legislation is unclear

There was increasing curiosity and rising awareness of heated tobacco in 2018, which was evident on social media platforms. Philip Morris (Malaysia) officially launched its tobacco heating device iQos in December 2018, which is available through appointed vape shops.

Legislation due in 2019, which may lead to launches by global players

The legislation covering e-vapour products and heated tobacco remains unclear, as there are no clear or fixed laws to regulate heat-not-burn or vaping products in the country. The government is in conversation with trade associations and health authorities to establish a legislative framework to regulate the sale and usage of e-cigarettes, e-liquids and heated tobacco products, which is expected to be announced in 2019.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

After its launch in 2018, exceptional growth expected for heated tobacco

Philip Morris was the first of the big three tobacco players to enter heated tobacco products in Malaysia in 2018, with the launch of iQos and HEETS towards the end of the year. This was not only the first heated tobacco product in Malaysia, but also the first market in Southeast Asia in which Philip Morris officially launched these brands.

New brands lead to further fragmentation in open vaping systems

The majority of open vaping systems, charging and vapourising devices available in Malaysia are imported, and are predominantly of Chinese origin. International players continually launch new product designs and new technological features to attract consumers and encourage purchases.

Sleek designs ensure growth for closed vaping systems

Despite negligible sales of non-cig-a-like closed vaping systems, this category started gaining traction in 2018, due to the many parallel imports of these products. The popularity of closed vaping systems is mainly due to their sleek designs, as well as their small size, which makes them easy to carry around and discreet.
