According to the clove cigarettes market research, the female end user group is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR over the course of the forecast years. The expansion of this clove cigarettes market segmentation is being driven by the rising number of female smokers from regions such as Europe, Latin America, and North America. The major element driving preference of female smokers for clove cigarettes is their lower emissions of unpleasant odours as well as their unique blend of flavours that makes the cigarettes milder. As societal taboos regarding female smoking reduce worldwide, the clove cigarettes market share is likely to expand in the coming years.
As per clove cigarettes market forecast, Asia Pacific is expected to witness rapid growth in the market and a sizably large market share. The growing market share of the Asia Pacific can be attributed to the strong production and demand from Indonesia, where these cigarettes primarily originate from. Due to the extensive distribution network and relatively low prices, clove cigarettes are easily accessible in the region.
The clove cigarettes market review also indicates that with Indonesia’s production hub, the popularity of clove cigarettes is expected to rise in neighbouring countries. The demand for clove cigarettes in the Asia Pacific is also supported by the increasing disposable income of consumers and willingness to experiment with novel cigarettes. The strong demand for cigarettes with herbal flavours would further propel the regional market, thus aiding the clove cigarettes market growth.
