Cigarettes in Angola, 2019

Cigarettes in Angola, 2019Summary"Cigarettes in Angola, 2019", is an analytical report that provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in Angola's tobacco market. 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 2028. Angola remains one of the more difficult of the former Soviet markets for which to determine consumption levels with any precision, due to the paucity of accurate volume data relating to official imports of cigarettes into the country, and the very substantial level of contraband and unrecorded trade. Cigarette consumption declined during the 1990s as a result of the rapid contraction in the economy, with the economic collapse culminating in a hyperinflationary spiral during 1993 and 1994, when inflation reached an annual rate of 15,607%.Scope

• An influx of imports has helped Angola to develop the characteristics of a Western market. Filter brands are in the majority, with the presence of king size lengths high. Light brands are not yet believed to have had a major impact.


• Most recent estimates put sales down slightly, with the impact of recent low oil prices on the Angolan economy likely to be behind this.


• International brands, such as BAT, are believed to account for a significant share of the market.


• Cigarette imports for those with Most Favored Nation Status increased during 2014 from what was 30% in January to 50% by November. A further increase to 60% was in force as of March 2019.
