Is There a ZYN Shortage?
As demand for ZYN has surged across the US, both on- and offline retailers are starting to feel the pinch when it comes to stock levels of this popular nicotine pouch.
In the short term, you might notice limited availability of some ZYN flavors in certain states. You can rest assured we’re doing everything in our power to maintain a steady supply of ZYN as the manufacturer amps up their production though.
In fact, we're pleased to say we can now relax some of the order limits that were previously in place and you're able to order 30 cans of ZYN every 30 days, selling for as low as $4.30 per can!
What does this mean for you?
We've just received a new shipment of ZYN with plenty available for home delivery (keeping in mind the maximum of 30 cans at checkout).* But if your favorite flavor does happen to be out of stock, why not take the opportunity to try one of our other nicotine pouch brands?
You can also be one of the first to know how the supply situation develops by subscribing to our newsletter – here we'll keep you posted on the latest ZYN updates and exclusive deals across the entire Nicokick range.
*Please note that any orders above 30 cans of ZYN won’t be processed right now, and this limit resets every 30 days. At this stage, no other brands are affected.
 
Frequently Asked Questions
Due to increased demand for ZYN right now, you may start to notice less availability of certain flavors if you’re looking to stock up (especially in-store). Right now, you can order 30 cans of ZYN every 30 days through your Nicokick account. This is to make sure as many ZYN customers as possible can get their hands on their preferred product(s) while Swedish Match boosts their US production.
The cost of ZYN increased on the supplier-side back in March and we held off for as long as we could before having to reflect that in Nicokick’s pricing. Given the recent pressures put on our stock, we had to sell ZYN at a non-promotional price for a short while, but are now pleased to say cans are down to $4.30 when you buy 30 cans in bulk.
No. Some people have speculated that a possible ZYN shortage is connected to Senator Charles (‘Chuck') Schumer's recent call for a federal investigation into nicotine pouches. While Senator Schumers’ comments made national headlines and most likely contributed to their all-time sales high, there's nothing to date in terms of federal legislation that prohibits the sale (or consumption) of legally-sold ZYN products to legal-aged adults (21+).
Right now, the most ZYN you can order is 30 cans every 30 days but we're hopeful that 50 can orders will soon be available again as Swedish Match has been working hard to get on top of their stock situation. Recently we had to impose a limit of 25 cans of ZYN per month – and before that 15 when supply was severely limited – so this is a positive sign from the manufacturer. The best way to stay up-to-date on all things ZYN is by subscribing to our newsletter at the bottom of this page.
Earlier this year, a fire did break out at the Swedish Match factory in Gothenburg, Sweden, but no one was harmed in the blaze and the disruption to European production was quickly dealt with. ZYN customers in the US get their ZYN supply from the Swedish Match factory based in Owensboro, Kentucky, so the fire has had no impact on US operations – aside from prompting Swedish Match to start expanding their local production facilities.
At the moment, no other brand is facing the same demand as ZYN, so stock levels are good. Of course, we’ll be keeping a close eye on the market to pre-empt any issues though if customers start switching to ZYN alternatives in the absence of their favorite flavor. Our aim is to always deliver a seamless experience when it comes to buying your nicotine pouches online, no matter what you order.
