GOVERMENT POLICIES IN TOBACCO INDUSTRY Production Planning Legal Regulations v Taxes v Tobacco Control Policies
PRODUCTION PLANNING Important points while making proper production planning v The aim of production planning should be to encourage domestic production. v. The amount of production should be determined according to the needs of cigarette sector. v The prices should be announced before the production begins. v Well- educated people should be involved in produciton planning.
LEGAL REGULATIONS Taxes Both domestic and imported cigarettes are taxed in Turkey v The sum of VAT and Special Consumption Tax on tobacco is 72. 75 % of their selling price by 2004. v 25 % of Custom tax and the fund of 3 $/kg is charged on imports in order to protect domestic producers.
Tobacco Revenues as a Percentage of Goverment Revenues Tobacco provides sustantial tax revenues to goverments especially in developing countries
Tobacco Control Policies In 1981, the warning “Harmful to Your Health” was printed on cigarette packages. In 1996, a new law came into effect which includes the points as follows: v The sale of tobacco products to people under the age of 18 is forbidden v Legal Warning : Harmful to Health should be printed on all packages of tobacco products v Smoking in health and education places, in transportation vechiles is forbidden v Making tobacco and tobacco products advertisements v is forbidden
CONDUCT Marketing Process of Tobacco v Based on Auctions v Based on Written Agreement Foreign Trade v Export of Tobacco v Import of Tobacco Pricing
Based on Written Agreement v The prices of tobacco produced are determined between the producers of tobacco products and tobacco producers according to the Agreement of Purchase and Sale of Tobacco. v After the application of this method, supporting purchases of tobacco are removed. v Since there is no guarantee to be bought the excess supply of tobacco in producers’ hands, tobacco producers do not want to production.
As it can be inferred from the table below the number of producers begin to decrease after the tobacco production is based on written agreement in 2002 Number of Producers by the Years 2001 Number of producers 2002 Number of producers 2003 Number of producers 2001 -2003 % change from Aegean 246. 168 193. 691 145. 407 -41 Black Sea 77. 804 74. 623 59. 681 -23 Marmara 9228 8. 588 5. 327 -42 East 23. 928 23. 182 22. 165 -07 South East 116. 339 102. 607 97. 943 -16 Total 473. 461 402. 691 330. 523 -30
Based on Auctions v Tobacco produced are sold in tobacco sale centers v The aim of this method is to provide an efficient market in which accurate prices are valid to encourage tobacco producers to produce in high quality Some problems with this method after applying in 2003: v Tobacco producers which have written agreement were more succesful to sell their excess supply of tobacco that’s why they didn’t apply this method. v Prices offered to tobacco producers which have excess stocks without written agreement were low and they were exposed to 68 % loss in value.
Export of Tobacco Major importers of Turkish Tobacco are United States, Canada France, Switzerland Germany Turkey exports 55 % of tobacco produced in each year of Turkey
Export of Tobacco As it can be inferred from the table, there are fluctuations in both quantity and value of exports. Although the amount exported in 2003 is more than that of in 2001, its value in 2001 is greater because of valuable foreign exchange Exports of Tobacco of Turkey between the Period of 1999 -2003 Years Quantity Value (ton) Million $ 1999 115. 34 470 2000 100. 194 373 2001 95. 7 340 2002 88. 849 280 2003 107. 870 325
The Amount of Tobacco Exported both Domestic and Private Companies between the Periods 1995 -2001 The increase in exports of private sector may stem from their growing share in tobacco market
Import of Tobacco After 1990 s Turkey begins to import tobacco because of the demad for American blend cigarettes, now has 2. 3 % share in world’s tobacco imports. It mainly imports from United States, Switzerland, France, Canada, and South Africa The Imports of Tobacco of Turkey Years Quantity(ton) Value (Million $) 1999 48, 846 248 2000 62, 195 308 2001 50, 113 243 2002 55, 75 278 2003 54, 666 273

By the years the share of Tekel becomes small and the share of Philsa is growing Market Shares of Domestic and Private Companies by the period of 1999 -2005 Producer 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 TEKEL 70, 2 69, 8 68, 7 61 52, 4 47 42 PHILSA 22, 7 22, 9 21, 04 27, 4 35, 8 37 40 JTI 7, 1 7, 3 9, 9 11, 6 10, 3 11 13 BAT - - - 0, 1 1, 5 4 5
Comparison of Market Share between Existing Firms in Turkey In 2002, BAT enters the industry and market share of it is growing by the years. In 2005, BAT has 5 % share and Philsa is the second biggest company in the industry.
Comparison of Employment Level of Existing Firms in Turkey Although the market share of private companies is incraesing, the number of people hired by them is not hihg enough compared to Tekel which hires 96 % of people working in tobacco industry. Employment in Domestic and Private Companies 1998 1999 2000 Tekel 28. 005 25. 954 26. 334 Philsa 715 710 713 JTI - 306 314 Total 28. 720 27. 070 27. 361
Conclusion Why Tobacco Industry in Turkey has an important contribuiton on economy? v Constitutes significant share of goverment revenues v. Increases GDP by the means of exports v Brings hard currency through trade v Creates job opportunities in both production and valuation processes
Recomendations v Proper Poduction Planning In order to reach equilibrium among production, and consumption, stocks, it is necessary to have a proper production planning. v Cooperatives Among Producers The requirements of agreement made between tobacco producers and trades are determined by only traders. Producers should build cooperatives in order to represent all producers and protect their rights against the other parties.
