Waitrose removes disposable e-cigarettes from stores and online.
Waitrose removes rechargeable e-cigarettes labelled Ten Motives due to environmental and health concerns.

Waitrose, a major UK supermarket, has announced that it is removing all single-use electronic cigarettes from both its physical stores and online platforms. Furthermore, the supermarket chain has stated that it will no longer stock lithium-containing electronic cigarettes that were previously sold under the Ten Motives label.


Charlotte Di Cello, Commercial Director of Waitrose, stated that the company is driven by doing the right thing, and therefore, selling disposable e-cigarettes cannot be considered the right thing given their impact on the environment and the health of young people.
