In South Africa, there has been a further marginal fall in smoking prevalence in 2024, with consumers turning to various smoking alternatives which are marketed as suitable to help them quit smoking. An increasing number of South Africans are attracted to e-vapour products, particularly single use formats, thus replacing traditional tobacco smoking.
Male consumers dominate both smoking cigarettes and the use of e-vapour products in South Africa, with the smoking rate among this demographic predicted to only marginally decline over the forecast period. The relatively high proportion of the smoking population (29% among male smokers) will encourage South Africa’s government to continue to introduce legislation in an attempt to curb smoking rates in the country.
Despite the positive outlook for NRT smoking cessation aids over the forecast period, these products are not easily accessible to many local consumers. For example, NRT gum is kept behind the counter in pharmacies where the product has to be specifically requested by the consumer.
