Why Are Smokers in Japan Shifting Toward E-Cigarettes?
The aftermarket segment of the Japanese e-cigarette market is categorized into refill, battery and charger, and others that include coils, tanks, and atomizers. Among these, the refill category held the largest market share in 2018. This category is further classified into liquid type, including nicotine-based and non-nicotine-based e-cigarettes; and flavor, including fruit, tobacco, menthol, candy, savory/spice, bakery/dessert, beverage, menthol tobacco, and others. Among these, in 2018, the nicotine-based liquid type refill dominated the market, as it is being marketed as an alternative for tobacco cigarettes.

The highest quantity of e-cigarettes is consumed in the Kanto region of Japan, as it has the presence of umpteen number of new users and ex-smokers. The region is also the most urbanized area in the country, due to the existence of cities, such as Kanagawa, Tokyo, and Chiba, which hold a vast population. Other regions in the country adopting a considerable number of vaping products include Hokkaido, Kyushu & Okinawa, Tohoku, Chubu, Chugoku, Kansai, and Shikoku.
To cater to the widening customer base in different regions, players in the Japanese e-cigarette market, including Japan Tobacco Inc., Philip Morris International Inc., Imperial Brands plc, and British American Tobacco plc, are increasingly adopting strategic measures such as product launches and mergers and acquisitions. Other players focusing on the market include Altria Group Inc., JUUL Labs Inc., Pax Labs Inc., Shenzhen Kanger Technology Co. Ltd., Shenzhen IVPS Technology Corporation Ltd., Shenzhen iSmoka Electronics Co. Ltd., and Innokin Technology Co. Ltd.
Thus, the availability of new products, the establishment of multiple distribution channels, and the consciousness regarding harmful effects of tobacco smoking will escalate the usage of e-cigarettes in Japan, in the coming years.
