I have a hard time believing Kirsten has such a big share of the market, considering I went to their store in Seattle last summer, and the woman informed me they couldn't get lucite for their stems after covid. I had to buy a German Hanseatic from her.

At first I also thought this might be a ranking. Maybe it is, but the list order is not clear to me. It covers international markets, so it would be interesting to know what country favors what producer. Like, could Vauen be tops in Germany. I've read the Germans like filtered pipes.

I wouldn't put too much stock into this, looks like a scam company that is charging $2,000+ for a "market report" that is really just a copy and pasted template they change the keywords in to cast a wide net. The preview on their website didn't even have all the keywords changed from the original and still says "iodine market" instead of "Tobacco pipe market" in a few places lol.

At only $2,000 for a "complete market analysis" they probably make a killing from all the coked-up WallStreet bros who buy every "market report" about silicone they come across whenever Kim Kardashian is trending on twitter.
