More than 500 vendors will be participating in this exhibition, including 50 distributors and 87 brand manufacturers in the electronic cigarette industry. Several well-known domestic electronic cigarette enterprises, such as ELFBAR, SMOORE, ZOVOO, FirstUnion, INNOKIN, and ZINWI, will also be participating.


The Tobacco Plus Expo (TPE) is the largest tobacco trade show in the United States and throughout the Americas, held annually at the Las Vegas Convention Center. It has successfully held 22 exhibitions to date. TPE holds a significant leadership position in the international and American product sales industry, serving as a barometer for the development of the North American tobacco industry and reflecting new trends in the field. Exhibits range from cigarettes, cigars, smoking accessories, tobacco leaves, to tobacco fragrances.


According to a report released by Juul Labs' "2022 E-Cigarette Export Blue Book," the United States is the largest single market for electronic cigarette consumption, with a consumer base of 13.5 million. This accounts for roughly half of the global e-cigarette market share and American consumers serve as a key indicator for the European market.


The staff of 2FIRSTS Washington News Center have travelled to Las Vegas to provide full coverage of the exhibition. In addition to conducting interviews with exhibitors on site, they will also liaise with distributors and collect first-hand data to present the state of the US electronic cigarette market through the exhibition.


The current TPE exhibition will last for three days (from the 22nd to the 24th) with the following opening hours (all in Pacific Time).


February 22, 12:00-17:00.


February 23rd from 10:30am to 5:00pm.


February 24, from 10:30 AM to 4:00 PM.


Media are allowed to enter the exhibition hall one hour before it opens to the public each day.


In addition, on February 22nd from 6:00pm to 9:00pm, TPE will be hosting an industry event at the Sahara Hotel.

Haypp Report Shows Nicotine Pouches Gaining Ground as a Vape Alternative in the UK
According to Haypp’s 2026 UK Nicotine Report, nicotine pouches are increasingly replacing both cigarettes and vaping. The UK market grew sharply, with Haypp and Northerner reporting a 60% year‑on‑year sales increase in 2025. Notably, 40% of users adopted pouches to quit vaping, nearly matching the 43% who used them to stop smoking. This indicates pouches are expanding beyond traditional smoking cessation and gaining traction among adults seeking non‑inhalable nicotine alternatives.
