Summary

"Smokeless Tobacco in Switzerland, 2018", is an analytical report by GlobalData that provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in Smokeless Tobacco. It covers market size and structure along with per capita and overall consumption. Additionally, it focuses on brand data, retail pricing, prospects and forecasts for sales and consumption to 2027.

Snus was imported personally, usually via the internet, and is therefore not recorded. While smokeless tobacco sales rose annually from 2002 to 2009, volumes declined during 2010-2013 before rising again in 2014. The overall market for smokeless tobacco amounted to eight tons in 1997. In 1998, demand fell back sharply to below 1996 levels. However, the market then increased, albeit unspectacularly, towards 2017.

Scope

- Although there are no official statistics covering production of smokeless tobacco, there are three Swiss companies reported to be producing snuff: FTB (Fabbrica Tabacchi Brissago SA), Count Murai, and Swiss Mopars of Herriswil.

- Imports have been rising recently, and Sweden is the most important supplier followed by Belgium and Denmark.
