Volumen minorista de los mercados de cigarrillos y HTP en países seleccionados

Volumen minorista de los mercados de cigarrillos y HTP en países seleccionados

Las ventas de productos de tabaco calentado (HTP) han experimentado un crecimiento significativo desde 2016 en Asia Pacífico y Europa Occidental y Oriental. En muchos países, esto ha coincidido con una disminución de las ventas de cigarrillos. Los datos sobre las ventas minoristas por volumen de cigarrillos y HTP se miden en unidades, pero una unidad de HTP puede no ser un sustituto perfecto para las personas que fuman, ya que contiene una dosis de nicotina menor que un cigarrillo. No obstante, las cifras de ventas minoristas por volumen sugieren diversos efectos de sustitución en los siguientes países:

  • sustitución aproximadamente de uno a uno de unidades de HTP por cigarrillos: Hungría, Corea del Sur, Italia, Alemania.
  • las ventas de cigarrillos disminuyen más rápido de lo que aumentan las ventas de HTP: Eslovaquia, República Checa, Rusia, Japón, Grecia.
  • las ventas de cigarrillos disminuyen más lentamente de lo que aumentan las ventas de HTP: Kazajistán, Lituania, Portugal.
