Spain Cigars and Cigarillos Market Overview, 2028

Tobacco and nicotine use is the leading preventable cause of death in Spain, causing the loss of more than 60,000 lives per year as well as a huge human, family and economic impact. For the tobacco pandemic there is no vaccine, but it is preventable through the action of citizens, due to their government and non-governmental representatives. At the beginning of the third decade of the 21st century, in which national health system is increasingly overwhelmed – by an ageing population and by the presence of relatively unexpected viral epidemics – treating diseases arising from tobacco and nicotine use is a burden largely avoidable. Reducing the prevalence of smoking to a residual percentage over the next decade – in addition to significantly improving population health can result in relief in the workload of Spain healthcare system and a reduction in cost overruns caused by people who smoke compared to those who do not. Additionally, Spain has signed and ratified the first global public health treaty, the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC). For this reason, it acts courageously and decisively to fulfill its objective: “to protect present and future generations from the devastating health, social, environmental and economic consequences of tobacco consumption and exposure to tobacco smoke”. Nofumadores.org continues to engage and work with Spanish law-makers to advance the agenda of a tobacco- and nicotine-free future using the Endgame Declaration for Spain 2030 as its main roadmap. According to the research report "Spain Cigars and Cigarillos Market Overview, 2028," published by Bonafide Research, the market is anticipated to add more than USD 280 Million from 2023 to 2028. Spain complies with the EU’s regulations on the excise tax on produced cigars and cigarillos. An increase in taxes on tobacco products on the proposed prohibition of smoking in public places including beaches and patios is affecting the overall sales of cigar and cigarillos market in the next coming years. The rising health concerns over smoking will also have a major impact on tobacco products. In terms of consumption, the youngsters are more prone towards it. The main reasons for starting to consume tobacco products are for fun, because of feeling stressed, and the belief that smoking can help with relaxation, for socialization and to be fashionable. One of the reasons why users choose certain products is because they believe that they are less harmful to their health, even when there is no evidence of that. For example, some consumers of slim cigarettes sometimes needed to consume more of those cigarettes to feel as satisfied as they would by smoking conventional cigarettes. Social media contain content generated by consumers themselves which influence public opinion and perception, and this carries a risk of smoking cigars in public becoming normalized once again. Most of the respondents expressed their concern at the influence of the marketing and designs that HTP use to attract young people. This has led to the more consumption and hence also increasing the growth of market.
