Cigarette volume sales continued to decrease in 2016, while value sales were up. The superior performance of value sales reflects relatively high brand-loyalty levels and a general lack of price-sensitivity amongst Taiwanese consumers. This has resulted in a trend for higher-priced long cigarettes. Both volume and value sales of cigars and cigarillos were up in 2016, with cigarillos experiencing some migration from cigarette smokers concerned about planned cigarette tax increases.
