The global smokeless tobacco market size reached US$ 20.6 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 29.7 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4% during 2024-2032. The growing awareness about the harmful impacts of smoking cigarettes, rising demand for flavored smokeless tobacco, and the increasing investments in snuff and gutka represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Smokeless tobacco comprises tobacco that can be chewed, swallowed, sucked, or inhaled rather than smoked. It is used as loose leaf, plug, twist, dry powder, and moist snuff, which is stored in pouches, paper packets, and small cans. It is widely available in various flavorings, such as cinnamon, berry, vanilla, and apple, and can be pressed into tablets, sticks, or strips. It can be placed between the inner cheek and gums on the lower part of the jaw to suck the tobacco juices. It allows nicotine to get into the bloodstream through the gums without swallowing tobacco. It is a safer alternative to smoking as smokeless tobacco is pasteurized to reduce the number of bacteria that can produce cancer-causing chemicals.
At present, the increasing demand for smokeless tobacco among the masses due to its ease of use, affordability, pleasant flavor, and reduced health risks as compared to smoking represents one of the key factors supporting the growth of the market. Besides this, there is a rise in the demand for smokeless tobacco as it contains twice as much nicotine as an average cigarette, which attracts users who consume high doses of nicotine. This, along with the wide availability of smokeless tobacco through online and offline distribution channels, is currently propelling the growth of the market. In addition, key manufacturers are extensively investing in smoke-free varieties, such as snuff and gutka, across the globe. They are also focusing on various marketing strategies to expand their customer base, which is strengthening the growth of the market. Moreover, the rising awareness among the masses about the harmful impacts of smoking cigarettes is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Governing agencies of several countries are also undertaking initiatives to increase the excise duty on cigarettes, which is catalyzing the demand for smokeless tobacco. Apart from this, the growing demand for flavored smokeless tobacco, such as peach, apple, honeydew, strawberry, pineapple, honeysuckle, champagne, and prune, is positively influencing the market. Additionally, the increasing number of betel leaf shops and brick-and-mortar stores across the globe is bolstering the growth of the market.
