What Are Nicotine Pouches? - Italy
Italy represents one of Europe's most promising emerging markets for nicotine pouches, with rapid urban adoption particularly strong in major metropolitan areas like Milan and Rome. The Italian market shows unique preferences, with coffee-flavored nicotine pouches experiencing exceptional popularity due to the nation's deep espresso culture and appreciation for refined flavor profiles. Unlike Sweden where pouches dominate with 70% market share among nicotine users, Italy's market is just beginning its transformation, offering early adopters access to premium Swedish-made products with minimal local competition. Urban professionals especially embrace the discretion and convenience of pouches, driving 40% year-over-year growth in major Italian cities.
