(MENAFNEditorial)
After the sudden jump recorded in the average unit price of cigarettes during 2012 the average unit price of the category decline substantially during 2013 as the unit prices charged for the majority of cigarette brands either remained unchanged or declined.

Competitive Landscape
Iranian Tobacco Co (ITC) is one of the leading state-owned tobacco monopolies in the world and all commercial activities undertaken in tobacco in Iran fall under its strict control. During 2002 the Government deregulated and liberalised tobacco in Iran and multinational tobacco companies began to enter the category. Some of them including BAT Plc and Japan Tobacco Inc formed agreements with ITC for the local state-owned monopoly to produce their products under licence in Iran.
Industry Prospects
Over the forecast period it is expected that ITC will provide more opportunities to key multinational suppliers for the importation and domestic production of their products in order to combat the illicit cigarette trade. An easing of government restrictions and the reduction of customs duties and import taxes are expected to be implemented in line with this policy. On the other hand key multinational companies such as Philip Morris International which are not yet permitted to operate in Iran are expected to continue supporting the clandestine importation of their own products in a bid to force the Iranian government to issue them with permits to trade in Iran. There have also been widespread rumours about the possible entry of Philip Morris International into Iran by 2015.
