According to reports, this exhibition had a total of more than 140 companies participating, which is slightly fewer than the 170 companies that participated last year. On the first morning of the exhibition, 2FIRSTS noticed that the number of attendees was lower compared to last year, a phenomenon confirmed by some exhibitors. Some exhibitors believe that the main reason for this is the economic downturn in the e-cigarette industry.

During a conversation with an e-cigarette battery supplier, 2FIRSTS learned that many companies that exhibited last year did not participate this year due to poor business performance and company closures. The supplier candidly admitted, "If you can still see us this year, it means we have survived.

Despite this, there were also many new faces at the exhibition. 2FIRSTS found that this year, many screen manufacturers and screen accessory companies were exhibiting for the first time. Most of these companies entered the e-cigarette industry last year or earlier this year, and their orders and sales are showing signs of growth.

Washington Policy Media Flags Surge: China’s Monthly Vape Exports Jump from 2.2M Kg to 14.8M Kg; Crackdown Effectiveness Questioned
The Washington Examiner on December 9, 2025, reported: China's vape export volume to the U.S. rebounded sharply from 2.2 million kilograms to 14.8 million kilograms despite the crackdown. This volatility, confirming the annual multi-billion dollar trade gap, is the "Bullwhip Effect" in action. It transfers massive inventory to the U.S. market, putting the working capital of Chinese manufacturers and the supply chain at severe risk of lock-up and failure. Regulatory escalation is now imminent.
