Competitive Landscape
Philip Morris and Shenzhen Weiboli Expand Share as New Launches Reshape Consumer Choice
Between 2020 and 2025, smokeless tobacco, e-vapour products and heated tobacco in Switzerland became markedly more concentrated, driven by aggressive share gains from a small set of leading companies. Philip Morris SA leads the category with nearly half the markets shares at 49%, followed by British American Tobacco Switzerland SA at 23% and Japan Tobacco International with 5% retail volume shares (sticks) in 2025.
Competitive Landscape Shaped by Wave of Product Launches and Porfolio Changes
In 2025, Philip Morris SA introduced the Delia brand as a lower-priced alternative to Terea, broadening its appeal with a focus on classic tobacco taste and simplified branding, while maintaining Terea’s reputation for flavour experimentation and limited editions. Japan Tobacco International replaced its Ploom X device with Ploom Aura and introduced Evo sticks, offering consumers a differentiated experience with the new heat select system.
