VUSE GO: Newest Product at Dortmund Tobacco Exhibition
2FIRSTS visited BAT's booth at the Dortmund tobacco expo and interviewed Daniel, who mentioned market changes and upcoming VUSE GO product launch.

2FIRSTS Interviews Daniel.


Daniel expressed that the past two years have been greatly impacted by the pandemic, with only participating in some online trade shows to barely maintain retail operations. Therefore, returning to the Dortmund tobacco expo this time is seen as a joyful event. Compared to the previous Dortmund tobacco expo, some changes in market structure were observed at this event. Daniel mentioned that "we can now see more small companies. Some of the big companies, who used to always exhibit as major suppliers, did not show up this time around.


During a discussion about products, a 2FIRSTS employee was drawn to a large "VUSE GO" poster displayed on a wall. They picked up the VUSE GO product from a display rack at the front desk and discovered that it was only the packaging. Daniel explained that it was just a demo and that the VUSE GO was going to be released soon. The poster below clearly stated "COMING SOON.

According to reports, VUSE GO is a disposable e-cigarette product launched as part of the VUSE series and is only available in a limited market. The official VUSE website states that VUSE GO comes in six different flavors, including watermelon, mango, blueberry, strawberry, mint, and creamy tobacco. Each device can be used for up to 500 puffs and comes in two variants with nicotine concentrations of 10mg and 20mg. In the UK, a single VUSE GO is priced at £5.99, while a package of six is available for £20.


According to reports, VUSE has surpassed JUUL as the top-selling e-cigarette in the United States this August. Even earlier, on July 27th, British American Tobacco announced during its half-year financial report that VUSE GO would be widely distributed throughout the European market in the second half of the year. The posters displayed on the wall at a tobacco exhibition in Dortmund seem to suggest that the full release of VUSE GO in Europe is not far away.

JTI Makes Third Bet on South Korea as Ploom AURA Enters a Market Dominated by lil and IQOS
Japan Tobacco International is stepping up its heated tobacco push in South Korea with Ploom AURA.

The rollout marks JTI's third major attempt to build a stronger heated tobacco position in South Korea, following Ploom TECH in 2019 and Ploom X Advanced in 2024. At the group level, JT plans to invest about ¥800 billion, approximately $5 billion, in reduced-risk products from 2026 through 2028, with heated products and Ploom identified as its primary investment priority.

Altria Smokeable Profit Rises 2.4% as Marlboro Share Falls and U.S. Discounts Gain
Altria’s second-quarter results show a U.S. nicotine market splitting across price, product and regulation. Smokeable profit rose 2.4% as Marlboro pricing offset lower volumes, while discount brand Basic gained share among value-conscious smokers. In oral nicotine, on! PLUS expanded distribution but faced intensifying competition from ZYN and Velo. NJOY remained off the market as patent and regulatory hurdles delayed its return. The broader lesson: U.S. growth increasingly depends on price-tier strategy, retail execution, authorisation and enforcement readiness across the industry.

South Korea Vape Strategies Diverge as BAT Reconsiders Exit and PMI Takes VEEV to About 14,000 Stores
BAT Rothmans says it previously considered exiting South Korea's vaping market because of competitive pressure from unregulated products, but is now reassessing conditions following changes to the country's nicotine regulatory framework. Vuse and other BAT vaping products remain available through existing distribution channels. The statement followed a South Korean media report that interpreted BAT's broader withdrawal from selected Vapour markets as a full exit from South Korea. Meanwhile, Philip Morris International launched VEEV inPRIME in the country in June and began expanding distribution to around 14,000 convenience stores and other retail channels in July. The contrasting moves highlight differing investment strategies as South Korea's regulated vaping market evolves.
