Summary
EU tax harmonisation measures have led to steep increases in specific excise taxes on cigarettes in order to bring tax levels up to EU minimum requirements. As a result, duty paid cigarette sales are well down on peak levels in 2001/02 when consumption was in excess of 35 billion pieces. Today they stand at 26.6 billion pieces. Better control of the illegal market has, however, reduced its profile from 20% in 2010 to 8.7% in 2012.
BAT is the main player in this market accounting for over half of sales, up from less than 30% in 2000. JTI and PMI rank second and third with Imperial Tobacco operating on the margins. This is a market centred on international brands and led by BAT's Kent, followed by Marlboro, Pall Mall, Winston, Winchester and L&M. Together these six brands accounted for over three-quarters of the market in 2012.
