Gum in Japan

Gum in Japan is set to see a second year of slight retail volume growth and stronger current value growth in 2024, in a rebound after a period of decline in volume terms. At the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak, chewing gum (the dominant category) experienced a sharp decline in sales as consumers were working remotely and wearing a mask. This led to a decline in demand, as gum is typically used to control bad breath.
