Another one among vaping trends, when the electronic cigarette use increased, was the popularization of vape products based on nicotine salts.

Long term decline in vape expo attendees

What’s sad and quite visible for us, is the change in the vape industry that applies to vape expos. Back in the day, there used to be enormous crowds of people talking about customizable vape juice, e-cigarette use, and specific parts of vaping equipment. One could meet different groups of e-cigarette users: younger smokers and vapers or long-term ex-smokers who took the quit attempt and switched to electronic cigarettes, dual users, and more! Additionally, the halls would be full of vapour, that one could barely see through. Nowadays, there are less attendees and less e-liquids on the stands.

Companies tend to promote their vaping devices, like pod kits, pre-filled cartridges, pod mods, rechargeable devices, and more, however, this does not bring more crowd to expos.

Moreover, due to various changes in the e-liquid industry, local vape shops often close, and one buys vape products online.
