E-cigarettes and vapes are becoming increasingly popular as alternatives to traditional tobacco products, particularly among young people. These devices work by heating a liquid, usually containing nicotine, flavourings, and other substances, to create an aerosol that users inhale. In contrast, vaping is the act of inhaling vapour from an e-cigarette or other similar device. The term “vaping” refers to the usage of various types of vaporizers, such as those for cannabis or herbs. Proponents say that they are less dangerous than smoking cigarettes because they contain fewer poisonous chemicals. However, concerns persist regarding their long-term health implications and the possibility of addiction, particularly given the enticing tastes and marketing methods focused at young people.
According to SPER Market Research, ‘Philippines E-cigarette and Vape Market Size- By Product, By Category, By Distribution Channel- Regional Outlook, Competitive Strategies and Segment Forecast to 2033’ states that The Philippines E-Cigarette and Vape Market is estimated to reach USD 639.95 Million by 2033 with a CAGR of 18.89%.
Drivers: The belief that vaping is less dangerous than traditional smoking has led to the acceptance of e-cigarettes and other vaping goods by people looking for a tobacco-free choice, which is largely responsible for the expansion of the e-cigarette and vape industries in the Philippines. The popularity of e-cigarettes and other vaping products is also largely due to the availability of a large variety of flavoured e-liquids and the social appeal of vaping. The promotion of e-cigarettes as a possibly safer substitute has struck a chord with those who want to give up smoking but find it difficult to do so using just conventional techniques. The popularity of e-cigarettes in the Philippines is partly due to their relative affordability when compared to traditional tobacco products.
Challenges: A common cultural assumption is to associate electronic cigarettes with their combustible counterparts, even though scientific evidence indicates that they are less dangerous than regular cigarettes. Consumer resistance to switching to e-cigarettes and vapes as an alternative to traditional tobacco products may be caused by public misconceptions over the health hazards and the products’ apparent similarities to smoking. Furthermore, legislators may be inclined to place stronger rules on these products due to public opinion and health concerns. The apprehension of normalizing smoking habits and the possible consequences for public health may prompt actions to impede the expansion of the e-cigarette and vape sectors. Moreover, the selection of materials used in the production of these goods is influenced by government laws regarding nicotine content, packaging, and advertising.

COVID-19 had a tremendous impact on the Philippine e-cigarette and vape business, affecting consumer behaviour and regulatory dynamics. Initially, lockdowns and movement limitations caused a drop in sales as vape shops closed and supply networks were disrupted. However, as customers sought alternatives to traditional tobacco products due to increased health concerns, some switched to e-cigarettes, believing them as a less dangerous option. This trend was exacerbated by a greater emphasis on health and wellbeing throughout the pandemic. In response, the government imposed stronger controls on e-cigarettes and vapes, including age restrictions and labelling requirements, in an effort to address public health concerns. The combination of shifting consumer tastes and evolving legislation resulted in more complex picture for Philippine e-cigarette and vape sector, with both difficulties and opportunities for future growth.
The Philippines E-Cigarette and Vape market is dominated by Metro Manila due to the presence of high population density and vibrant urban lifestyle. Some of the key players in the market are Altria Group Inc.; British American Tobacco plc; Geekvape; Imperial Brands plc; Japan Tobacco Inc., and others.
