Complexity

Tobacco manufacturing involves highly standardized, repetitive processes which are suitable for automation. While there are significant regulatory and health considerations, they largely affect product formulation and marketing, rather than the core manufacturing processes which are more amenable to AI integration. The industry has balanced physical and digital infrastructure needs, with moderate workforce flexibility and data intensity.
