PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Recovery expected across all categories, supported by premium offerings and regulatory shifts
Volume sales of cigars, cigarillos, and smoking tobacco are expected to enter a period of modest recovery starting in 2025, following the steep declines observed in 2024. Growth in cigars and cigarillos is likely to be underpinned by improving economic conditions and the rising availability of premium and niche products.
Price hikes to continue, driven by inflation and currency pressures
Average unit prices across cigars, cigarillos, and smoking tobacco are projected to rise further over the forecast period, reflecting the broader economic environment. Persistent inflation and the ongoing depreciation of the Turkish lira are expected to exert upward pressure on production, packaging, and distribution costs.
Product differentiation likely to focus on flavours and presentation, not innovation
Meaningful product innovation is unlikely in cigars, cigarillos, and smoking tobacco over the forecast period, due to the restrictive regulatory environment and the relatively niche positioning of these categories. However, manufacturers are expected to continue exploring subtle ways to differentiate their offerings within the boundaries of the law.
