Swedish Snus Brands Performance on the Market

Swedish snus products are gaining traction in the global market scene due to the scientific backing that proves it poses less risk as compared to smoking cigarettes. Aside from the Scandinavian and American market, Swedish Snus is also penetrating the global market. Many online retailers provide global shipping, and snus users get to enjoy fresh products that help lower the rates of tobacco-related diseases. Even with intense competition, Swedish Snus is taking over the global snus market at a significant rate.

Swedish Match

Swedish Match, a Stockholm-based manufacturer, is among the most popular Snus brand in Scandinavia and the U.S. the company also deals on tobacco-related products like lighters and cigars. Even though snus is primarily manufactured and consumed in Sweden, there is big potential in the U.S and globally due to the increasing popularity of this product.

Snus users can order this company’s brands from credible online retailers like SnusDirect and enjoy affordable global shipping. Amid fierce competition, Swedish Match seems to be thriving in the U.S market. This is especially due to the joint venture this brand has with Philip Morris International. Being a serious contender in the U.S snus market, Philip Morris International is allowing Swedish Match to pursue new exciting opportunities.

Even though the American snus market is used to the fermented moist snus, many snus users are warming up to Swedish snus especially because you don’t have to spit with Swedish products. The demand for snus and traditional snuff is growth beyond Scandinavia mainly due to the health risks associated with smoking tobacco. This growth in popularity is bound to materialize as more sales in the near future. Many smokers are looking for a way to quit smoking, and Swedish snus offers an excellent alternative. Many smokers attest to finally being able to put down the cigarette thanks to snus.

Other Swedish Snus Brands and Serious American Contenders

Swedish krona
Other that Swedish Match, there is also Swedish Krona which has also experience serious growth outside Scandinavia. The U.S is snus’s biggest growth area, and Swedish Krona is doing well so far. In fact, the brand is thinking of targeting the rest of the world as well.

Reynolds American Inc
Some of the American brands that offer fierce competition include Reynold American Inc and Altria. Aside from manufactured snus products, traditional dipping tobacco also seems to be a catch. However, the long-term volume decline for traditional dipping tobacco can be attributed to it being mostly used by ageing customers.

Swedish squeeze
Today, even the younger generation is warming up to Swedish snus. Yet another Swedish snus brand to look out for is Swedish Squeeze. Packed in executive cans on premium snus, Swedish Squeeze makes the 71% market share Swedish snus has in Sweden. Serious contenders include Japanese Tobacco and Imperial Tobacco. Swedish Squeeze is mainly within the Swedish market even though it also has big potential in the U.S market. Other brands to look out for include Grov Snus, Catch, Kronan, Ettan, and General and their global recognition keeps increasing with every passing year.

Conclusion

Swedish snus is speculated to be a better alternative to smoking cigarettes, and its global recognition is increasing each passing year. There are countless snus brands to choose from, and the variety in flavouring allows users to find something that suits them.
