Cigars and cigarillos are expected to post a positive performance in retail volume terms over the forecast period as they are mainly consumed by affluent consumers who are less affected by the weak economic conditions in Morocco. The increasing number of tourists, especially with the opening of new touristic resorts such as the Mazagan and Taghazout Bay resorts, along with the expansion of modern retail (hypermarkets and supermarkets) and specific cigar stores such as La Casa del Habano in large cities will help boost sales of cigars.
The recent lift of the ban on smoking pipe tobacco led to the revival of imports and local sales as a result of rising consumption, especially in on-trade outlets, which account for the vast majority of total pipe tobacco sales. Thus, sales are expected to record robustly positive growth over the forecast period, especially with rising number of tourists not only from European countries, but also from Middle Eastern and gulf countries.
Société Marocaines des Tabacs is expected to maintain its clear lead of cigars as it is the exclusive distributor for Corporacion Habanos in Morocco and distributes internationally renowned cigars such as Cohiba, Montecristo, Partagas, and Romeo y Julieta. Société Marocaines has been marketing these cigars in Morocco since 2004 through its own store network, La Casa del Habano, which is present in the large cities of Morocco.
