According to her introduction, Vont is a nicotine replacement product company from Sweden, dedicated to providing smokers with a safer and healthier alternative to quitting smoking. The company holds a European Union patent for nicotine gum and offers a variety of flavors and dosages of e-cigarette products. Vont's main products at this exhibition are nicotine gum, and they also showcased other products including e-cigarettes.

 

"However, because it's our first time attending, we try to bring all products to present them better," she added, "the e-cigarettes are still the best-selling products."

According to her introduction, Vont's main market and base are in Sweden, while also selling to markets in Germany, the UK, Poland, and Estonia. Currently, the NGP market is growing and evolving rapidly. The second generation e-cigarette product was released one month ago, and the nicotine gum product was released three to four months ago.

 

She stated that Vont's participation in the EVO NXT exhibition is due to her optimism about the future potential of the event and her belief that nicotine gum will become the next generation of nicotine replacement products following e-cigarettes and nicotine pouches.

 

"After e-cigarettes and nicotine pouches, nicotine gum will be the next NGP product," she said.

New Zealand Associate Health Minister Casey Costello Warns on Illicit Cigarettes as Legal Tobacco Sales Halve Over Decade
