Tobacco in Sri Lanka

In 2023, Sri Lanka's tobacco sector faced substantial challenges due to significant price hikes for cigarettes amid economic recession and import restrictions. These factors led to a marked decline in smoking rates, especially among lower socioeconomic groups, resulting in significant financial losses for the tobacco industry.
