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 until 2030.
The Saudi cigarette market has suffered from mixed fortunes since 1990. Previously one of the largest markets in the region, boosted by a combination of duty-free trade and a large expatriate population. As of 2019, the market stood down at 12.50 billion pieces. As a result of the tax hike in mid-2017, and the introduction of VAT at the beginning of 2018, sales have slumped. A further fall to 12.0 billion pieces is forecast for 2020. In per capita terms, volumes of 351 pieces are forecast in 2020 or 31.4% of their level in 1990.
