The Expected Growth of the E-Cigarette Market
The global e-cigarette market is expected to grow by 16% annually from 2022 to 2032, with an estimated market share of $125.4 billion by 2032.

The electronic cigarette market is expected to grow at an astonishing rate of 16% annually from 2022 to 2032. By 2032, the market share for electronic cigarettes is projected to reach $125.4 billion, which is higher than the $28.42 billion market share in 2021.


As more and more people learn about the comparatively healthier nature of e-cigarettes as compared to traditional tobacco cigarettes, particularly amongst younger generations, it is expected that the market trend for e-cigarettes will increase. Additionally, the user-friendliness of these devices has improved customer acceptance, and this is expected to support the growth of the e-cigarette market throughout the projected period.


As indirect taxes on tobacco products continue to rise in many countries, consumers are finding it difficult to afford regular purchases of cigarettes. As a result, they are turning towards alternatives like smokeless tobacco products. The convenience of being able to purchase a variety of tobacco products in local markets is another significant factor influencing people to choose smokeless tobacco over traditional cigarettes.


The Asia-Pacific region is a rapidly growing area, with emerging players in the smokeless tobacco market such as Shenzhen Huaxin Yuke Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Yilu Technology Co., Ltd., and Shenzhen Kindul Terminal Technology Co., Ltd. contributing to this growth.

Although electronic e-cigarettes account for over 80% of market revenue share, non-electronic e-cigarettes have become a rapidly growing niche with a compound annual growth rate of 17.3%. Offline channels remain the dominant part of the global e-cigarette market based on distribution channels, but online channels are gaining traction in recent years with the surge of e-commerce sites. North America is the most important region for its e-cigarette market size, accounting for nearly 50% of global revenue share. In terms of growth factors, the Asia-Pacific region is the most promising, with e-cigarette market share predicted to grow by 15.8% between the forecasted years of 2022 and 2032. The competitive landscape is...


As the market for electronic cigarettes is present in many regions, countries, and faces international competitors, the competition among them is very intense. The invention and promotion of new products are the most common strategies employed by participants in the electronic cigarette market.

In January 2019, California-based electronic cigarette manufacturer Juul Labs Inc announced plans to launch its e-cigarettes in India. The decision was motivated by a desire to expand the company's commercial footprint, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region where smokeless tobacco market opportunities are high. In December 2020, Jap Tobacco Inc. and Sauber Engineering AG, a modern prototyper and innovator, signed an agreement as part of which the two companies must collaborate to use the former's electronic cigarette devices and products to offer a better user experience.
