Zyn, a popular nicotine brand, is poised to make a comeback on American shelves following a surge in demand that caused supply chain shortages, particularly in states like New York, New Jersey, and Florida. The parent company of Zyn, Philip Morris International, reported an impressive 80% increase in Zyn shipments in the US in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period last year, which led to challenges in meeting consumer needs.
Philip Morris International's chief financial officer, Emmanuel Babeau, mentioned at a recent conference that efforts are underway to resolve the supply chain disruptions, aiming to achieve a sense of normalcy by the fourth quarter of the year. To further address the growing demand for Zyn, the company is looking ahead to establish a new production facility in the US by 2025. Despite the recent issues with supply, Zyn has carved out a niche in the market as a go-to energy boost for consumers looking to enhance productivity, with its distinctive flavored pouches gaining popularity among various demographics.

Why are we promoting a brand that contributes to nicotine addiction?

The fact that Zyn is being marketed as an "energy boost" is misleading and dangerous.

Just because there is demand for a product doesn't mean it's good for society.
