5月2日，美國(guó)雪茄協(xié)會(huì)發(fā)布的數(shù)據(jù)表明，美國(guó)2022年1月份雪茄進(jìn)口量同比增長(zhǎng)3.8%，進(jìn)口手工雪茄達(dá)到2100萬支，而去年1月份為2060萬支。

從尼加拉瓜進(jìn)口的雪茄數(shù)量繼續(xù)排名第一，達(dá)到1470萬支，占比是68%，同比增長(zhǎng)19%。

從洪都拉斯進(jìn)口的雪茄為320萬支，同比增長(zhǎng)33%。

而從多米尼加進(jìn)口的雪茄數(shù)量為330萬支，去年同期是560萬支，下降了40%。有可能是12月份多米尼加因?yàn)榧倨陉P(guān)閉工廠的后遺癥。恢復(fù)正常生產(chǎn)需要一個(gè)逐漸的過程。根據(jù)多米尼加雪茄制造商的說法，雪茄廠的人員配備一直是個(gè)問題，雪茄物流也是一個(gè)問題，跟你講一個(gè)月，也講不完的問題。

對(duì)于美國(guó)來說，2021年是手工雪茄進(jìn)口最好的一年，一共有4.56億支雪茄運(yùn)到美國(guó)，同比增長(zhǎng)了25.5%。而上一次年進(jìn)口雪茄數(shù)量超過4億支還是在1997年。

The ultra-hot handmade cigar market continues to show signs of growth. January 2022 imports, released today by the Cigar Association of America, showed 3.8 percent growth over last January. Just over 21 million handmade cigars were shipped to the United States in January, compared to 20.6 million in January 2021.

Nicaragua, which continues in the No. 1 spot, showed strong growth of 19 percent, with 14.7 million cigars shipped in January, 2022. That’s 68 percent of total shipments.?

Honduras also showed a big increase, up 33 percent to 3.2 million units.

The Dominican Republic had a steep decline, down 40 percent, from 5.6 million to 3.3 million, likely a hangover effect from the holiday closures of factories that begin in December. Getting back to normal production isn’t always a quick (or effortless) process. Staffing cigar factories has been a problem, according to cigarmakers, particularly cigarmakers in the Dominican Republic, and shipping cigars (like so many other products) remains problematic. One month can never tell the full story.

Last year was one of the best ever seen for the handmade cigar industry, with 456 million premium cigars shipped to the United States, up 25.5 percent. The last time imports exceeded 400 million units was in 1997.
