The RYO Boom
As the cost of smokes has continued to explode, the Roll Your Own (RYO) market has grown by leaps and bounds.
Although recent legislation has significantly increased the tax on tobacco, the cost to roll a box of smokes is still roughly one third the cost of pre-manufactured product. This cost difference continues to fuel growth in the RYO segment, driving sales of tobacco, tubes and home filling machines.
The limitation to truly explosive growth has been the fact that it takes close to three hours of time for the consumer to fill a box of smokes. With the development of the RYO Filling Station—and a filling speed of 8 minutes per box—the sky is now the limit and so is your savings. .
