“The overall conditions for Nicotine pouches have never been better. The growing consumer demand for less harmful nicotine products as well as favourable regulatory development in many of Haypp Group’s Growth markets will be two major drivers of our future growth. During the fourth quarter, Haypp Group recorded 54 per cent growth in Nicotine pouches, with substantially higher volume rates in the Growth markets segment and Sweden. The category accounts for 36 per cent of the Group’s volume during the quarter. We continue to leverage our position in the value chain, during the quarter we locked down agreements with some of our key business partners which further improves our commercial position for the future versus before,” says Gavin O’Dowd, President and CEO Haypp Group.
