E-cigarette shops in Wisconsin, USA, see sales drop due to new regulations
Wisconsin's new vape regulations have led to a significant drop in sales and stock for vape shops. The law, which bans most vape products, has forced businesses to remove 80% of their stock. Many top sellers are now off-limits, and some customers are traveling out of state to find the products they want. Despite losing a lawsuit against the Department of Revenue, WiscoFAST continues to fight the regulations, arguing that they unfairly target small businesses.
