Smoking Parents V/S Non- Smoking Parents

Posted by Chain Smokers under
Individual interviews were conducted with 726 Glasgow children aged 6–17 years. The majority of the secondary school children made good judgements of the cigarette brands preferred by teenage and adult smokers. The young smokers were particularly good at this. These findings add to the growing body of evidence indicating that young people are much more aware of matters relating to cigarettes (such as brand names and imagery) than adults realize, and that underage smokers are more aware of these matters than nonsmokers of the same age.

Primary school children with parents who smoked tended to be more aware of brand preferences than primary school children whose parents did not smoke.This indicates that the children of smokers tend to be more attuned to brand preferences, and that much of this early learning occurs in the home.

The young smokers showed an enhanced preference for the brand most preferred by adults. This replicates a phenomenon reported in Australia. The preferred brand in Glasgow, Kensitas Club, is heavily advertised in the Glasgow press.

The findings suggest that children are highly sensitive to the advertising of cigarette brands, and provide further support for recent research indicating that cigarette advertising promotes and reinforces smoking among the young.

New Cigarette Brands For 2012

Posted by Chain Smokers under
1. Rich (Rich Apple and Rich Rum&Cherry) – this brand is launched by Imperial Tobacco subsidiary, Richmond Tobacco Co., famous among adult smokers for such premium-quality brand as Richmond.





Rich cigarette brand differs from other products by the inimitable flavor of Apple and Cherry, which can be felt after opening a pack of these cigarettes. We recommend Rich brand to those smokers that prefer stronger smoke, high-quality and unusual aroma.











2. Beratt (Beratt L, Beratt XL, Beratt XXL) – this brand is the latest creation of TUTUN-CTC, the famous Moldavian tobacconist and owner of such great brands as Doina, Temp and Cosmos.




According to the manufacturer, Beratt cigarette is manufactured from high-quality imported Virginia and Burley tobacco and natural ingredients that contribute to a rich and balanced smoke of these cigarettes and their intense and pleasant taste. Beratt is selling in the mid-value segment, and can become a strong competitor in that category.






3. Dunhill – this premium quality fine cut tobacco product is expected to join our stock next week.








But we decided to let our customers know about the arrival of this exceptional brand in advance. Dunhill brand needs no advertisement, as it is one of the flagship brands of British American Tobacco in the premium segment.
