根据美国雪茄协会发布的数据,今年4月份,美国雪茄进口量增长强劲,当月美国进口手工雪茄为3430万支,而去年4月份这个数字是3150万支。
就今年来说,4月是唯一一个同比增长的月份,良好的表现扭转了一季度的进口量下降的趋势,使得2024年前四个月美国雪茄进口额和去年同期持平。今年1-4月份,美国进口的手工雪茄一共是1.274亿支,和去年1-4月份的1.279亿支基本持平。
这其中,从尼加拉瓜进口的手工雪茄为7480万支,同比增长2%,继续保持美国手工雪茄主要进口国的主导地位。多米尼加生产的手工雪茄进口量是3150万支,同比下降了5.9%,洪都拉斯的手工雪茄是1990万支,同比下降4.4%。这三个国家的雪茄占美国进口额的99%。
作为全世界最大的手工雪茄消费地,美国的雪茄消费继续显示强劲的迹象。已经连续四年雪茄出口正增长,过去三年的进口量都超过了4亿支。
A particularly strong April resulted in a nine percent increase in the number of handmade, premium cigars shipped to the United States, according to the Cigar Association of America. Exports for the month were 34.3 million handmade cigars, compared to 31.5 million in April 2023.
To date, April is the only month of 2024 with an increase over 2023 numbers. The strong showing reversed three months of decreases or flat results, pulling 2024 exports to date equal with 2023. For the first four months of the year, 127.4 million handmade cigars have been shipped to the United States, virtually equal to the 127.9 million shipped in the first four months of 2023.
Nicaraguan shipments for the first four months are up 2 percent, at 74.8 million, continuing its position of dominance as the leading exporter of handmade cigars to the United States. Dominican shipments decreased by 5.9 percent, to 31.5 million, and Honduras was down 4.4 percent to 19.9 million cigars. That trio of producers account for 99 percent of handmade cigar exports to the United States. (Cuba of course, ships no cigars officially to the United States due to the longstanding embargo.)
The U.S. market for handmade cigars is the largest in the world, and one that continues to show signs of strength. Exports have grown for four years in a row, and the last three years have resulted in shipments of 400 million units or more.
