Bahrain's Duty Free to stop selling cigarettes, sees lower profits
- Bahrain: Thursday, March 14 - 2013 at 05:25
Bahrain Duty Free (BDF) has said the health warning logo that now has to appear on all cigarette packets sold in the kingdom could cost it 20% of its profit this year, Gulf Daily News has reported. BDF is no longer able to sell duty free cigarettes at the airport, as international tobacco companies refused to supply them if the logo is on the products, said chairman Farouk Yousuf Almoayyed. Bahrain is the only country in the GCC region that insists these anti-smoking pictures are produced on duty free cigarettes, he added.
