Cigarettes in Belgium
Description
Cigarette sales continued to decline in volume in Belgium in 2024, primarily due to increased excise duties and regulatory changes. The sharp rise in prices, following the excises hike in April, led many consumers to seek more affordable alternatives. Whilst this trend has been evident in the shift toward lower-priced cigarette brands and smaller pack sizes, the leading Marlboro Red from Philip Morris Belgium BVBA remains popular and actually gained share in 2024.
