  • Transnational Tobacco Companies in Indonesia
    The Indonesia Tobacco Market: Foreign Tobacco Company Growth Indonesia is the world’s third largest cigarette market by volume (excluding China) and there are approximately 57 million smokers in the country.2-3 According to one tobacco company, the Indonesia tobacco market consisting of hand-rolled kreteks, machine-rolled kreteks and white cigarettes was 270 billion sticks with a profit pool of RP 26.5 trillion ($2.95 billion USD) in 2010, an increase of 18% since 2007.1 Additionally, Indonesia’s cigarette retail volume and value are predicted to continue to grow consistently over the next five years.2 Indonesia’s growing cigarette market, large population, high smoking prevalence among men, and highly unregulated market, make the country an attractive business opportunity for international tobacco companies attempting to make up for falling profits in developed markets like the United States and Australia. The powerful presence and nature of transnational tobacco companies (TTCs) in Indonesia Source: BAT investor presentation1 increases the threat of the tobacco industry to public health because the companies’ competitive efforts to reach young consumers and female smokers ultimately increase smoking prevalence in markets where they operate. 4 Since 2005, the Indonesian market has shifted from being solely dominated by local manufacturers to a market where the number one, four and six spots are controlled by TTCs: Philip Morris International-owned Sampoerna, British American Tobacco-owned Bentoel, and KT&G-owned Trisakti respectively. In 2010, the combined market share of these three companies made up almost 40% of the Indonesian market.2 Leading local tobacco companies include Gudang Garam (number two), Djarum (number three) and Najorono Tobacco Indonesia (number five).
