The French market for tobacco: prices & margins: typical margins

Article Abstract:

Tobacco distribution in France is controlled by retail tobacconists, which are allowed by the government to charge an 8% levy of the price of the tobacco products they sell. The government charges 76.70% tax on cigarettes, 68.69% on RYO, and 46.55% on cigars and cigrarillos. A tax increase is reportedly being considered by the governemtn to pay for low revenues should price competition erupt at the end of 1997. Hotel-restaurant-catering is the only other medium though which tobacco is old. This medium achieves profit margins of 15%, but it can sell only a certain amount per week.
