According to a recent report released by the IMARC Group, the tobacco products market in Africa is expected to witness a compound annual growth rate of 4.72% during the period of 2023-2028.
This growth can be attributed to the region's economic development and the increase in per capita disposable income, which has led to higher expenditure on non-essential items such as tobacco products. The expansion of the middle class and rapid urbanization have provided growth opportunities for the market, while improved retail convenience and proactive marketing strategies have also promoted the popularity of tobacco products.
A report has highlighted the increasing influence of sociocultural factors, leading to a higher acceptance of tobacco consumption. With the trend of globalization, Western lifestyles and consumer patterns have impacted Africa, further driving the increase in tobacco consumption. The rapid development of technology has brought new possibilities to the market, particularly with the emergence of new tobacco products such as e-cigarettes, heated tobacco products, and nicotine pouches, which are favored by consumers.
The report highlights several key tobacco companies, including British American Tobacco, Carnilinx Tobacco, and Golden Leaf Tobacco. The market has been categorized based on tobacco types and applications, with Burley being the largest tobacco category, and cigarettes being the most common tobacco form. The dominant position of the African tobacco market is primarily attributed to South Africa's positioning in the market, consumers' disposable income levels, and a well-developed tobacco industry.
The report also highlights several new trends in the market that have positively impacted its growth, such as the development of packaging technology, government support for the tobacco industry, and the increasing number of trade agreements. Additionally, collaborations between tobacco companies and other brands, as well as advancements in agricultural technology, are considered key factors for market growth.
