Supreme Plc Acquires T-Juice's Cuts Ice Brand
Supreme Plc, a UK wholesaler of electrical equipment and food supplements, has acquired Cuts Ice, producer of T-Juice brand.

The T-Juice brand of Cuts Ice, based in London, has been acquired by Supreme Plc, a British conglomerate founded in 1975 that operates as a wholesale distributor of electrical equipment, light bulbs, batteries, and dietary supplements. The company later expanded into the production of e-liquids. It is reported that the company's products have a demand of over 5.2 million 10ml bottles of e-liquid per month in the major European markets.


UK-based company PLC has announced the acquisition of Cuts Ice and its subsidiary Flavour Warehouse, which conducts research and development in Italy and Spain. This move is expected to increase PLC's presence in markets beyond its current scope by around 30%, with an estimated daily sales volume of 300,000 units of e-liquid through the brand 88vape KIK, particularly in France, Germany, Italy, and Spain, where T-Juice already has a significant stronghold. The acquisition is seen as a step towards PLC CEO Sandy's goal of creating a smoke-free world and providing consumers with a trusted alternative to nicotine and safer consumption options.

Couche-Tard Posts Double-Digit U.S. Same-Store Growth in Other Nicotine Products, Led by Pouches
Alimentation Couche-Tard said U.S. same-store sales in its “other nicotine products” category grew at a double-digit rate in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, led by nicotine pouches, while overall U.S. same-store merchandise revenues increased 1.7%. The company also said its Canadian nicotine business continued to face regulatory pressure and illicit-market headwinds. The U.S. performance coincides with Couche-Tard's participation in efforts to reopen Canadian convenience-store access to authorized nicotine pouches, though the company has not established a direct causal link between the two.

EU Vape, Heated Tobacco and Nicotine Pouch Tax Reform Reaches Ministerial Talks: Sweden Opposes Proposed 2032 Minimum of 50% of Retail Price or €50/kg for Nicotine Pouches
EU Vape, Heated Tobacco and Nicotine Pouch Tax Reform Reaches Ministerial Talks: Sweden Opposes Proposed 2032 Minimum of 50% of Retail Price or €50/kg for Nicotine Pouches
EU finance ministers are scheduled to discuss tobacco excise reform on November 9, 2026, seeking agreement on higher minimum duties for conventional tobacco and a common EU minimum tax framework covering e-cigarettes, heated tobacco and nicotine pouches. A November 5 Council document identifies nicotine pouch taxation as the main outstanding issue. The Irish Council presidency proposes phased increases, reaching 50% of retail selling price or €50 per kilogram in 2032. Sweden has formally said it cannot support the current compromise, objecting to both the proposed nicotine pouch tax burden and the adjustment of minimum rates based on national purchasing power. The package also addresses cross-border personal-use reference quantities, raw tobacco controls and the continued exclusion of traditional tobacco snus.
