Current smoking among youth aged 15 to 19 years was 11% in 2012, keeping flat with 2011.
Competitive Landscape
Cigarettes in Canada is largely consolidated - leading by three companies - Imperial Tobacco Canada, Rothmans Benson & Hedges (owned by Philip Morris International since 2008) and JTI MacDonald Corp. In 2013, these three companies together accounted for 98% share of overall volume sales of cigarettes in Canada, with Imperial Tobacco Canada leading with 56% retail volume share.
In Canada, cigarettes is projected to record a retail volume CAGR of 2% over the forecast period, reaching 31.6 billion sticks in 2018.
