The global snus market size was valued at USD 2.41 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at USD 3.51 billion by 2027 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5% from 2020 to 2027. The growing popularity of snus owing to the convenience of the application it offers to its consumers is a key factor driving the market. The ease of using the product anywhere unlike cigarettes, which cannot be smoked in public and no smoking zones owing to the harmful effects of combustion, has been playing a crucial role in promoting the usage of snus.

Moreover, it is much more convenient in use as compared to dip tobacco as the by-product is swallowed rather than being spit out. These favourable factors associated with snus products have made it a convenient replacement for tobacco products, such as cigarettes, cigars, and smoke pipes.
The low rate of oral, lung, and pancreatic cancers and respiratory diseases associated with the use of the product is a major reason for its adoption among tobacco addicts. In the process of manufacturing snus, the tobacco is steam pasteurized and not fermented like other types of smokeless tobacco. This inhibits the growth of microbes that form a cancer-causing chemical known as tobacco-specific nitrosamines, which is commonly found in other smokeless tobacco products.

Snus is also less harmful compared to inhaling nicotine through combustible tobacco products. According to a research published by the International Journal of Cancer named “Use of moist oral snuff (snus) and pancreatic cancer”, in 2017, it was concluded that there was no relation between snus use and risk of pancreatic cancer as the nitrosamine level is low in snus than in tobacco smoke.
Key companies are: Swedish Match AB; British American Tobacco; Altria Group, Inc.; AG Snus; Burger Sohne Sweden AB; Dacapo Silver AB; Fiedler & Lundgren; GN Tobacco; Gordito Oü; Gotlandssnus; Nordic Snus AB; and Skruf Snus.

Analyst Commentary

Portion led the market and accounted for more than 80% share of the global revenue in 2020. Portions are made by packing tobacco in pouches. They are available in various forms, including original, white, dry white, all white, and others. The original portion is dark in color and is packed in moist surface and it delivers an instant flavor and nicotine release.

The white portions are not moistened during manufacturing and therefore offer less drip, thereby causing low salivation and a longer-lasting nicotine release. The product is expected to witness the fastest growth in the years to come. The portion snus is available in various sizes, including large, slim, super slim, and mini, which weigh less than a gram.

Growing popularity has stimulated the manufacturers to create flavored products, including mint, eucalyptus, berries, fruits, licorice, whiskey, spices, bergamot, cedar, citrus, dry fruit, hay, leather, smoky, tea, and tobacco. Among these, the more popular flavors including mint, berries, and fruits are further available in different subcategories of flavors. For instance, mint snus can be found in variants including spearmint, wintergreen, and menthol.

Segmentation

The snus market is segmented on the basis of product and region. On the basis of product, the market is segmented into Loose, Portion. Smokeless tobacco can be used in places where other tobacco products are banned and is medically accepted as less harmful than smoking. Volume sales of the same are growing in the United States and other countries while that of cigarette is contracting. Major tobacco companies are investing in smokeless tobacco via acquisition and product development. In 2017, 11% of the Norwegian population, aged 16 to 74 years, was found to be daily cigarette smokers, while 12% used snus daily. Moreover, 2017 was reported as being the first year in which there were more daily snus users than cigarette smokers in the country.

Cigarette smokers comprise the principal target group for loose snus. The WHO’s surveys show that many smokers want stronger snus in order to view it as an alternative option to other tobacco products. The increase in sales of previously launched loose snus with a high nicotine content also clearly indicates considerable demand for loose snus products with high nicotine content. For instance, Swedish Match launched General Ekstra Sterk loose snus with strong tobacco flavor and more nicotine, which gained popularity among consumers across Europe and North America.

Regional Analysis

Europe accounted for the largest market, accounting for more than 40% of the global revenue in 2020. Strong popularity of such products among male consumers in Scandinavian countries such as Norway and Sweden is expected to remain a favorable factor for the industry. Furthermore, the increased number of new product launches in aforementioned countries is projected to keep the dominance of the region over the next few years.

Middle East and Africa is expected to expand at the fastest CAGR of 9.3% from 2020 to 2027. The region has the least regulations related to the sale of tobaccos. It is known as makla in Africa. Snus is not banned in any African country. More and more international and national agencies are trying to reduce the number of smokers in the region. These products have been proved to be helpful in getting rid of smoking addiction and therefore these are rapidly adopted in the region. Furthermore, these products are affordable and thus are increasingly preferred among the buyers.
