Hungary presents an attractive smoking tobacco market with one of the world's highest smoking incidences, taking into account regular and
occasional smokers. Although there has been a long-term decline of the overall tobacco products market, smoking tobacco has seen a high increase.
Notably, this growth has been driven by many consumers switching from manufactured cigarettes to roll-your-own and make-your-own tobacco. The long
term prospects of smoking tobacco are also good owing to the fall in minimum duty payable in 2015, and stable tax incidence since 2012 for finely
cut tobacco giving smoking tobacco a major competitive advantage over manufactured cigarettes.
