Bahrain e-cigarette market

Although the Bahrain government has not completely banned the sale and use of e-cigarettes, the country’s e-cigarette market is relatively small. Currently, Bahrain’s e-cigarette market is mainly sold by some international e-cigarette brands, while the number of local e-cigarette manufacturers is relatively small. According to Bahraini media reports, only a few local e-cigarette brands sell their products in the Bahrain market, while other brands are mainly imported from abroad.

Bahrain’s e-cigarette market is subject to some restrictions, such as the implementation of a ban on smoking in public places, which also applies to e-cigarette smokers. In addition, the government has been working hard to promote awareness of the dangers of smoking and its impact on overall health and the environment. These restrictions and publicity may have a certain impact on the size and growth of Bahrain’s e-cigarette market.

Overall, although the size of the e-cigarette market in Bahrain is limited, customers’ considerations of quality and value make it possible to purchase luxury e-cigarette products. As the e-cigarette market continues to grow and the government strengthens its publicity efforts, e-cigarettes may gradually become more popular in Bahrain.

The latest (2023) development of the e-cigarette market in the Middle East

The e-cigarette market in the Middle East is relatively new. However, it has experienced significant growth in recent years and is expected to grow in the coming years. The demand for e-cigarette products has increased in the Middle East due to their increasing popularity as a smoking alternative or smoking cessation tool. This has led to an increase in the number of vape shops and the launch of new vape products in the Middle East. Manufacturers are constantly launching new e-liquid flavors to attract consumers and increase their market share. In addition, e-cigarette brands are expanding their presence in the Middle East, with some companies opening new retail stores to meet the growing demand for e-cigarette products.

Companies in the Middle East e-cigarette market are investing heavily in research and development activities to improve the quality and safety of their products in the e-cigarette industry. Governments are beginning to regulate the e-cigarette market, with some countries imposing restrictions on advertising and sales to teenagers. This is expected to have a significant impact on the Middle East e-cigarette market in the coming years.

Overview of the e-cigarette market in the Middle East

The Middle East e-cigarette market is expected to witness growth owing to the growing preference for the product among the Arab population as it tends to reduce tobacco cravings, reduce consumption of traditional cigarettes, and is less harmful than traditional cigarettes. Furthermore, the consumption of e-cigarettes is associated with fewer health problems than the consumption of traditional cigarettes, which has led to the increasing adoption of e-cigarettes in Arab countries. Additionally, several Middle Eastern governments support e-cigarettes as a public health tool to eradicate traditional smoking habits, thereby raising awareness of the advantages of e-cigarettes over traditional smoking methods.

According to 6Wresearch, the Middle East e-cigarette market size is expected to grow throughout the 2020-2026F forecast period.

Not only the Middle East market, but also the global e-cigarette market will grow at a compound annual rate of 30.6%.
