PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Challenging outlook under cost pressures
Value sales of NRT smoking cessation aids are expected to rise over the forecast period, but growth will remain constrained by affordability issues. Inflation and policy-driven cost increases are set to pressure household budgets, making NRT products less accessible.
Patches to remain the fastest riser
NRT patches is projected to remain the key growth driver during the forecast period. Nicorette’s patch range is expected to retain strong momentum, while innovations such as the launch of Nicorette QuickMist Spray could attract interest in more niche segments of the market.
Potential vape ban could shift demand back to NRT
The Malaysian Health Ministry is considering a blanket ban on vaping, covering both usage and sales, due to rising health concerns over unregulated vape liquids. If implemented, such a ban could significantly increase reliance on NRT smoking cessation aids as smokers seek alternatives, potentially driving stronger growth across the forecast period.
