VPZ Plans to Open 23 New Stores by 2024
British e-cigarette retailer VPZ plans to open 23 new stores by mid-2024, bringing total locations to nearly 200.

According to sources from Insider, the British e-cigarette retailer VPZ, headquartered in Edinburgh, plans to open 23 new stores by mid-2024. This expansion will bring the total number of stores for the retailer to nearly 200.

 

These new stores will be located throughout England, Wales, and Scotland, offering professional smoking cessation advice, as well as sustainable products and recycling services.

 

This expansion plan will include opening 19 new flagship stores in pedestrian streets and shopping centers, as well as planning to open four new franchise stores through new and old partners, including in locations such as Cardiff, Bristol, Plymouth, Sterling, and Exeter.

 

VPZ claims to have helped approximately 700,000 smokers quit since its establishment in 2012. Managing Director of VPZ, Doug Mutter, stated:

 

We plan to open 23 new stores in the middle of this year, reflecting our desire to help more smokers start their journey to quitting smoking and properly address the environmental impact of disposable e-cigarettes.

 

Mr. Mutt supports the ban on disposable e-cigarettes, but he warns that the UK government needs to learn from similar actions in Australia, which led to the growth of an illegal black market.

 

According to reports, VPZ was founded in 2012 and currently has over 160 stores. It claims to be the largest e-cigarette retailer in the UK.
