In 2023, VAPE FAIR was a resounding success with 354 brands presenting their offerings across a 10,766 square meter exhibition space and welcoming 12,205 industry professionals from 26 countries. The 2024 edition is anticipated to build on this success, featuring an array of leading e-cigarette brands, e-liquid manufacturers, accessory suppliers and raw material producers.

 

The e-cigarette industry in Indonesia is on a trajectory of impressive growth, with a market share of USD 400 million in 2023 and a steady 2.22% CAGR. This growth is fuelled by Indonesia’s progressive regulatory environment and the increasing consumer preference for tobacco alternatives. VAPE FAIR 2024 will continue to serve as the largest e-cigarette event in Asia, providing industry professionals with a unique opportunity to explore emerging trends and establish new business relationships.

Product | BAT Expands VELO Peach Ice Medium to FamilyMart Stores Nationwide in Japan
British American Tobacco Japan (BAT Japan) expanded VELO Peach Ice Medium to FamilyMart stores nationwide in Japan from September 7, 2026.

It combines peach flavor with menthol cooling at a Medium strength level and is priced at JPY 360. Japanese tobacco retailers list 15 pouches per pack. The move adds the new SKU to an existing nationwide FamilyMart distribution network for VELO rather than marking the brand's first entry into the convenience-store chain.

U.S. Ninth Circuit Upholds FDA Denial of MH Global’s Flavored Vape PMTA Applications
U.S. Ninth Circuit Upholds FDA Denial of MH Global’s Flavored Vape PMTA Applications
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit upheld the FDA’s denial of MH Global LLC’s applications to market flavored electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). The court ruled that FDA’s comparative-efficacy framework, which requires applicants to show that flavored products provide greater cessation or switching benefits than tobacco-flavored alternatives, is consistent with the Tobacco Control Act’s “appropriate for the protection of the public health” standard. The court also found that FDA was not required to establish the framework through notice-and-comment rulemaking.
