Market Analysis

Worldwide, it is estimated that 31% of men and 8% of women are smokers. While the proportion of adults who smoke has declined, because of the growing population the overall number of people smoking and number of cigarettes smoked has increased since 1980.

Globally, over the past 30 years, smoking prevalence among men has declined by about 10% although there is considerable variation worldwide. The greatest reductions have been in high-income countries but prevalence has also fallen in some low- to middle-income countries.

However, many LMICs have made only slight reductions or have experienced an increase in

smoking prevalence. Most of these countries are in southern and central Asia, Eastern Europe and Africa, China alone has one third of all male smokers worldwide. Because Africa’s population is rising faster than the rest of the world Africa will see a much higher number of male smokers in the future if no additional tobacco control measures are implemented. Smoking among women deceased in several African and Asian countries from 1980 to 2013 and in many countries in these regions, female cigarette smoking remains uncommon. However, recent increases in female smoking prevalence have been reported in Cambodia, Malaysia and Bangladesh and between 2005 and 2025 female smoking is predicted to double. These trends show that there is still a need for strong tobacco control measures in order to Tobacco and the developing world
