KEY DATA FINDINGS

Cigar and cigarillo sales mainly driven by consumers seeking smoking indulgence and luxury
Price-sensitive consumers switch from conventional cigarettes to roll-your-own, with cannabis also helping to support sales of fine cut tobacco
Ongoing trend for shishas supports pipe tobacco, as many bars ignore the restrictions and consumers also take up shisha smoking at home
Cigars will continue to see popularity as an occasional indulgence, whilst demand for cigarillos will fall once again
Fine cut tobacco set to face competition from cheaper foreign cigarettes once again, and even cannabis smokers are seeking healthier fillings for their joints
Shisha smoking at home will help support sales of pipe tobacco, while the authorities may come down more heavily on shisha bars
