Explosive Growth of South American NGP Market: Refined Display Stands Become New Industry Trend
Reported from the South American Tobacco Industry Summit, with the upgrading of healthy consumption concepts, next-generation tobacco products (NGPs) such as heat-not-burn (HnB) products and e-cigarettes have witnessed explosive growth in the South American market, particularly in Brazil and Argentina. Market research data shows that the scale of the South American NGP market increased by more than 40% year-on-year in 2025. Although traditional tobacco still dominates, NGPs have become the core driver of market growth. This trend is forcing the tobacco display stand industry to accelerate upgrading, with refined and customized products becoming new market favorites.
Different from traditional tobacco, the small size and complex accessories of NGP products make traditional display stands difficult to meet the display needs. At a tobacco retail store in São Paulo, Brazil, the owner said: "Previously, displaying e-cigarettes on ordinary shelves was not only prone to loss but also messy, and the texture of high-end products could not be reflected at all." Industry insiders pointed out that most NGPs are positioned in the mid-to-high-end market, and the display method directly affects brand image and consumption decisions. Refined display has become the core demand of retailers.
Changes in market demand have spawned new opportunities in the display stand industry. Many leading manufacturers have laid out the South American market and launched refined display solutions adapted to NGPs. These solutions generally adopt lockable transparent acrylic partition design, which can accurately store cartridges and charging cases of different specifications; some high-end products are also equipped with exclusive demonstration areas, providing charging experience and operation guidelines, while reserving compliant warning areas to meet the strict health supervision requirements of various South American countries.
Industry experts predict that the South American NGP market will maintain rapid growth in the next 3-5 years, and the scale of the refined display stand market is expected to exceed 1 billion US dollars. For display stand manufacturers, grasping the characteristics of NGP products and the compliance requirements of the South American market, and launching targeted solutions will be the key to seizing market share. High-quality display stand products will also help retailers improve operational efficiency and brand competitiveness, achieving win-win results for all parties.
