Rundu Pharmaceuticals Plans to Expand Nicotine Products Overseas
Investors inquire about potential collaboration with Swedish match company and US nicotine pouch sales for Ruando Group (002923.SZ).

Recently, an investor raised questions on the interactive platform asking whether Runto Corporation (002923.SZ) is collaborating with Swedish Match AB and whether they have plans to register their brand to sell nicotine pouch products in the United States.


In response to this, Runto Pharmaceuticals stated that the quality of the bioalkaloids (nicotine) produced by its wholly-owned subsidiary Runto Pharmaceuticals (Jingmen) Co., Ltd. has been widely recognized and has achieved commercial sales. Nicotine products can be applied in various fields such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, e-cigarettes, nicotine pouches, and nicotine patches, with a wide range of applications. The company will actively understand the relevant domestic and foreign market access rules, strive to gain more commercial cooperation opportunities, and provide better returns for investors.

India Duty-Free Nicotine Pouch Sales Face Regulatory Test as ZYN, FOX Classification Remains Open
India Duty-Free Nicotine Pouch Sales Face Regulatory Test as ZYN, FOX Classification Remains Open
The Bombay High Court has ruled that airport duty-free shops are not exempt from India's domestic regulatory laws merely because they operate beyond the customs barrier, leaving in place a sales halt covering ZYN and FOX nicotine pouches at Mumbai's international airport. The court, however, did not determine that the products necessarily qualify as "drugs" under India's Drugs and Cosmetics Act. The retailers have four weeks to submit product information to the appropriate authorities, including CDSCO, which must complete its review within 30 days of receiving the submissions.

On November 12, lawmakers in Leningrad Oblast and the Republic of Karelia adopted bans scheduled to begin on March 1, 2027. A day earlier, St. Petersburg unanimously approved a five-year ban proposal in its first reading. The city has 615 specialist vape shops and more than 2,400 other retail outlets selling vaping products alongside other goods. Under Federal Law No. 186-FZ, enacted in June 2026, Russian regions may prohibit retail sales of electronic nicotine delivery systems and related liquids between March 2027 and March 2032. The legislation also restricts licensed suppliers from delivering covered products to retail premises in regions where bans apply.
