Tobacco sales continue to decline in 2018

The retail sales value of tobacco saw an increase in 2018, with the implementation of a 10% increase in excise tax, which lead to higher unit prices for all tobacco products. Volume sales, however, continued to decline, as the government continued to implement stricter tobacco control regulations.

Increase in excise tax has limited impact on tobacco consumption

The increase in excise tax seemed to result in only a modest decline in cigarette volume sales in 2018, as smokers continued to see cigarettes as a necessity and were thus willing to pay a higher price for them. Some consumers also chose to trade down to a cheaper brand rather than stop smoking completely, which made the impact of this tax hike rather limited.

Major players continue to dominate the market

The point-of-sale display ban proved to be a challenge for tobacco players in Singapore. As all other marketing and promotional activities had already been prohibited, point-of-sale display was the main way for consumers to discover new brands or products.

Sales of tobacco in foodservice hindered by the display ban

The total number of licensed tobacco retailers was at a record low in 2018, with only 4,746 licensed tobacco retailers recorded. This was caused by the point-of-sale display ban, which affected the sale of tobacco at restaurants, hotels and cafés, in particular.

Tobacco volume to continue to decline over the forecast period

Over the forecast period, the government is likely to strengthen regulatory controls for tobacco products to try and meet the 10% smoking prevalence target by 2020. A gradual increase in the legal smoking age as well as the planned implementation of plain packaging will be some of the major factors impacting the industry over the forecast period.
