Evolution Vaping is a family-run business and well-known for its friendly and efficient customer service . Although it ’ s initial store launch was in 2014 , James Burr first launched Evolution Vaping as an online retailer . However , his vaping journey begun before the rise of Evolution Vaping . Prior to vaping , James was smoking at least 20 cigarettes a day before he fully transitioned to vaping . He explained he was driven to quit smoking for the sake of his children . He said : “ I have young children and I wanted to quit for them . My wife and I both smoke but we wanted to quit and lead a healthier lifestyle so we decided to quit for our children .” James is aware other smokers who are also parents attempt to quit smoking for the sake of their children but can ’ t quite reach their goal . In fact , before vaping James had a terrible smoking habit but that soon changed when he saw true potential in vaping devices and how it could help other smokers . James said : “ When I first started vaping , it was a product I believed in . It helped me quit smoking and I knew it would be a product that others can believe in too .” After vaping for 18 months , James and
his mother , Sharon , decided to generate more awareness on the healthy benefits of vaping to the public and together they formed Evolution Vaping . The flagship store is based in Kingstanding , Birmingham , which has been growing from strength to strength .
“ I have young children and I wanted to quit for them . My wife and I both smoke but we wanted to quit and lead a healthier lifestyle so we decided to quit for our children .”
The store was recently refurbished to keep up to date with the popular vaping products in the industry . James ’ vision for Evolution Vaping is for the store to be the forefront of vaping in Kingstanding as he mentioned : “ I ’ ve noticed how fast the vaping industry is growing and moving . There ’ s something new on the market every day and we want our flagship store to reflect that . “ We wanted to remaster the store so it becomes a sociable hang out area for vapers . The store has a lounge for people to relax and hang out where they can also purchase hot and soft drinks . “ Our new store has a booth for people to have a chat and a juice bar with the latest e-liquids on the market and an area to build your own coils .” From sampling a range of the latest e-liquids to learning all about vaping , Evolution Vaping caters to meet the demands of vapers and non-vapers . James also advises new vapers to : “ Visit an established vape store like Evolution Vaping who know what they ’ re talking about . “ Don ’ t fall into the trap of buying your first e-cigarette online . Learn how to use it , charge it and vape it . This way , you ’ ll be able to quit smoking and have a fantastic vaping experience .” In our next issue , we ’ ll be discussing the success of Evolution Vaping ’ s recently re-mastered store with James Burr himself .
