While cigars and cigarillos showed surprising growth in South Korea over the last four years of the review period, the category still needs to improve awareness and widen the consumer base to achieve further growth. Cigars are perceived as inconvenient to smoke due to the limited number of smoking locations.
Although sales of cigars have been increasing, and are expected to continue to do so in the forecast period as the consumer base is expanding, the presence of cigars in the main distribution channels remains very low. According to owners of convenience stores, which is the largest distribution channel for the overall tobacco industry, cigars are not as appealing to consumers as cigarettes, due to their higher prices.
