Smoking shisha has a long tradition in the Middle East, and is considered an important leisure activity by most Arabs. Furthermore, shisha cafés started to attract large numbers of tourists looking for an Oriental experience during their stay in the country. Sales are additionally boosted by the country-specific tradition of smoking medwakh, a small pipe, which is popular in the United Arab Emirates and Oman.
Competitive Landscape
Scorpion Dokha remains the only branded product in medwakh tobacco, and therefore leads this product segment, with broad availability in different retail outlets. Nevertheless, due to the importance of shisha molasses in this category, Kamber Jaffer Trading, with a 23% volume share, and Al Fakher Tobacco Trading, with an 18% share, remain the most important players in smoking tobacco.
