Fascinating and random encounter
On a recent holiday I met a family whose patriarch is an executive at one of the big 4 to***co companies. We tripped over this being the case as we brought up va**ng.
He explained his company had been researching this for years and had brought products to market. However they recently decided to close their whole va**ng business down. The reasons for this were as follows:
1. Va**ng is more addictive than ci******es
2. Va**ng leads to more consumption of product than ci******es
Now if you’re like me, these 2 sound like great things for a consumer product and it’s sales. And they are. So what’s the catch?
Number 3.
3. They can not deliver a safe product at a price point that generates profits. The cost of doing so is 3x the price of va**ng products coming from a certain country.
And….
4. They don’t want to be in the va**ng space because the cheap product coming in, their scientists have analysed it, and they have no idea what’s in these imported products.
Even their own manufacturing was outsourced to the same country and despite stipulating their recipie, their end product had things in it that their scientists couldn’t work out.
They simply didn’t want to be in the va**ng space because it wasn’t profitable AND they couldn’t be certain the end product was what they thought is was.
So if you know anyone that vapes, they may be interested to learn that not even a big cigarette company will touch them. Surely that’s saying something?
