The Angolan central bank forecasts an inflation rate of 17.5% for 2025, anticipating improvements in the supply of goods and services as well as better monetary conditions for economic activity.
The largest category in tobacco in Angola is cigarettes, driven by high demand and affordability, along with a variety of brands available. Following this, cigars and cigarillos are experiencing an increase in popularity due to increased availability and demand, thanks to the expansion of tobacco specialists offering a wider selection.
Japan Tobacco International (JTI), Barco Trading, and British American Tobacco (BAT) are the leading companies in tobacco in Angola. JTI offers brands such as Aspen and Camel in cigarettes.
The primary channels for tobacco distribution are small local grocery retailers making products more accessible to consumers. Such stores are increasing, not only in the main areas of Luanda but also in various other points in the outskirts, a trend that is expected to increase volume sales and availability.
A notable trend gaining traction in Angola is the rise of lounges specialising in tobacco products. Established tobacco brands, such as D-cigars, are embracing this shift to enhance consumer interest and encourage the exploration of new products.
