- Imperial Tobacco has reported increased penetration of hard packs for its brands. This has come as a result of investment made in its Laos operation: it is estimated that two-thirds of cigarettes are now in hard packs.
- The publisher forecasts a 2% increase in duty-paid volumes between 2020 and 2030 to take the market to 3,670 million pieces.
