Market Introduction

The raw tobacco leaves market in Europe is segmented into Germany, France, Italy, the UK, Russia, and the rest of Europe. Tobacco is grown in 12 European Union nations at present. Italy, Spain, Poland, Greece, Croatia, France, Hungary, and Bulgaria are among the top tobacco producers in the EU, accounting for 99% of the total production. Depending on the variety, yields range from 1 to 3 tons per acre. The region produces various varieties of raw tobacco leaves, such as Flue-cured Virginia tobacco, light-air-cured Burley varieties, sun-cured or oriental, dark-air-cured, and fire-cured. The Tobacco Products Directive (2014/40/EU) was enacted on May 19, 2014 and came into force in EU countries on May 20, 2016. The directive establishes guidelines for the production, presentation, and sale of tobacco and tobacco-related products. It prohibits the use of distinguishing flavors in cigarettes and roll-your-own tobacco; mandates tobacco companies in the EU countries to provide a report on the substances used in their products; mandates health warnings on the front and rear of cigarette and roll-your-own tobacco packages—the combination of image, text, and information on how to quit must cover 65 % of the front and back; sets minimum warning dimensions and forbids some tobacco products from being sold in small packages; introduces EU-wide tracking and tracing to combat illicit tobacco product trade; permits EU governments to prohibit tobacco and related product sales on the internet; and requires manufacturers and importers to notify EU countries about new tobacco products before launching them in the EU market.

In Europe, currently the UK, France and Russia are the hardest-hit countries by the coronavirus outbreak. It is estimated to suffer an economic hit due to a lack of revenue from various industries, as the country recorded the highest number of coronavirus cases followed by France, Spain, Italy, and Germany. Other member states have implemented drastic measures and travel restrictions, including partially closing their borders. This is anticipated to impact market growth in Europe. The outbreak of the novel coronavirus has negatively affected the growth of the market in the UK and rest of the region. There has been a decrease in sales of tobacco products due to slowdown in production due to the lockdown. Furthermore, the disruption of supply chain has also affected the supply of the product to the market.
