Key Clove Cigarettes Market In APAC Driver

The rising demand due to growth in organized retailing is notably driving the APAC clove cigarettes market. Organized retailers have grown worldwide with the establishment of supermarkets, hypermarkets, and speciality stores. Clove cigarettes are sold through supermarkets, speciality stores, and hypermarkets in countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and India. The supermarket is a major distribution channel that makes tobacco products easily accessible to consumers. For example, Indomaret-a convenience store owned by Salim Group-is one of the major distributors of clove cigarettes in Indonesia.

Furthermore, the number of supermarkets in India witnessed an increase of nearly 1,600% between 2006 and 2021, thus validating the rapid growth of urbanization and infrastructure in the country. Rapid urbanization signifies the rising disposable income of consumers, which, in turn, leads to an increase in consumer expenditure on products such as clove cigarettes and traditional cigarettes.

Besides, the demand for herbal cigarettes has also risen over the years.

Moreover, flavors like menthol, cloves, cinnamon, and orange have become widely popular among consumers, as they not only provide the luxury of smoking but also provide a distinctive aroma and taste. Grape, vanilla, strawberry, and cherry are the other ingredients that are increasingly adopted by manufacturers of cigarettes. For example, Djarum vanilla and Djarum cherry are widely popular among Indonesian consumers. Also, mixed varieties like two ingredients incorporated in one cigarette such as clove mixed with menthol and clove mixed with cherry have grown in demand among consumers. Hence, all the above-mentioned factors will increase the APAC clove cigarettes market growth during the forecast period.
