History

edit

Level was launched in 2001 as a budget brand cigarette.[1] Level was the first low priced cigarette introduced in Sweden. At introduction, a pack of Level cost 26 Swedish Krona.

Level has attracted some attention because of its slender profit margins. Of the approximately 30 Swedish Krona that a pack cost in 2005, the merchant charged about $1.65, which is about €5.00 for a normal package.[citation needed]

In 2015, a pack of Level cigarettes cost 50 Swedish Krona for both normal king size cigarettes and 100s cigarettes.

Markets

edit

Level is mainly sold in Sweden, but also was or still is sold in Norway, Denmark, Poland, Ukraine and Russia.[2][3][4]
