PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Mixed outlook for cigars, cigarillos and smoking tobacco
The outlook for cigars, cigarillos, and smoking tobacco in Kazakhstan is expected to improve over the forecast period, although performance will vary by category. Cigars will continue their gradual decline, primarily due to the lack of a strong smoking culture in the country and their perception as expensive, occasional-use products.
Hookah smoking remains widespread despite ban
Despite the official ban on hookah smoking in public places such as cafes and bars in Kazakhstan, the practice remains widespread. In 2024, however, authorities ramped up enforcement efforts, conducting large-scale raids in cities like Almaty to identify venues violating the law.
Limited innovation expected in niche tobacco categories
No major innovations are anticipated across Kazakhstan’s cigars, cigarillos and smoking tobacco market, largely due to their niche status and specialised consumer base. The greatest potential lies in cigarillos and pipe tobacco, where flavor experimentation could appeal to younger adults.
