HCS is the owner of the largest shisha club in Russia. With the continuous development of Russia's vaping industry, they have become the most influential event organizers in the fields of shisha and e-cigarettes. Over the years, they have hosted more than 10 exhibitions, accumulated an audience of over 100,000 people, and have reached a community of nearly a million people, making them the most influential event promoters in the Russian vaping industry.


The Vape Club Show recently held in Moscow had a powerful impact and influence as it quickly filled up within just one minute of registration opening online. This demonstrates the strong pulling power of the organizers of the exhibition.


2FIRSTS, a vertical media outlet deeply rooted in the electronic cigarette industry, has reached a broad agreement with HCS officials after extensive discussions. Both parties share a consistent vision and philosophy on industry development trends, market dynamics, and consumer demand. After numerous rounds of negotiations, they have agreed to pursue more collaboration opportunities to support Chinese e-cigarette manufacturers in entering the Russian market and achieve mutually beneficial results for participants in the Chinese and Russian markets. This long-term partnership is aimed at exploring more possibilities for cooperation.


In May 2023, HCS will hold a large-scale electronic cigarette exhibition in Kazan, Russia. 2FIRSTS will be an important partner of HCS and will deeply participate in various aspects such as media promotion and exhibition cooperation.
