In 2023, VAPE FAIR was a resounding success with 354 brands presenting their offerings across a 10,766 square meter exhibition space and welcoming 12,205 industry professionals from 26 countries. The 2024 edition is anticipated to build on this success, featuring an array of leading e-cigarette brands, e-liquid manufacturers, accessory suppliers and raw material producers.

 

The e-cigarette industry in Indonesia is on a trajectory of impressive growth, with a market share of USD 400 million in 2023 and a steady 2.22% CAGR. This growth is fuelled by Indonesia’s progressive regulatory environment and the increasing consumer preference for tobacco alternatives. VAPE FAIR 2024 will continue to serve as the largest e-cigarette event in Asia, providing industry professionals with a unique opportunity to explore emerging trends and establish new business relationships.

 

For the inaugural time, VAPE FAIR 2024 is pleased to introduce a new Supply Chain sector aimed at enhancing operational efficiency and driving innovation within the vape industry. This sector will cover Specific Components and Raw Materials, Importer and Distributor Machinery, Contract Manufacturing (OEM/ODM), Packaging and Processing Equipment and Third-Party Logistics. This new focus underscores VAPE FAIR’s commitment to advancing the e-cigarette industry and offering a comprehensive platform for professionals to connect, explore new technologies and cultivate growth opportunities.

Special Report | Can Nicotine Be Replaced? 6-MN Is Already on the Market While Key Human Evidence Is Still Missing
Special Report | Can Nicotine Be Replaced? 6-MN Is Already on the Market While Key Human Evidence Is Still Missing
Nicotine analogues such as 6-methylnicotine are already appearing in e-cigarettes and oral pouches, even as key human evidence remains limited. A new Nixodine-S study adds nonclinical data showing differences from nicotine in cytotoxicity and receptor activity, while independent studies point to a more complex toxicological picture. With supply-chain activity growing and FDA seeking clearer authority over nicotine analogues, the industry now faces a larger question: what evidence is needed before these substances can credibly replace nicotine?

JUUL Purchasers Ask Ninth Circuit to Preserve Antitrust Classes in Case Over Altria’s $12.8 Billion Investment
JUUL Purchasers Ask Ninth Circuit to Preserve Antitrust Classes in Case Over Altria’s $12.8 Billion Investment
Private antitrust litigation stemming from Altria's 2018 $12.8 billion investment for a 35% economic interest in JUUL is advancing before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Direct purchasers, indirect purchasers and indirect resellers of JUUL products filed answering briefs this week seeking to preserve class certifications granted by a California federal court in February. Altria and JUUL argue that individual consumers and large distributors differ too much in purchasing terms to remain in a single direct-purchaser class, while a separate dispute concerns whether California antitrust law can apply to indirect purchasers across 27 jurisdictions. A September trial has been put on hold during the appeal.
