I In just seven years, Vampire Vape have taken the vaping world by storm. With a presence at expos the world over and new products always in development, a lot of work has gone into making them the fi rm fan-favourites they are today. Just one year after Vampire Vape launched with their range of 12 flavours in 2012, Flavour Warehouse was established and made them it’s offi cial brand. They now have over 60 flavours, many of which have won esteemed international awards. Founder Philip Boyle says: “One major highlight for Vampire Vape this year was winning the Best Dessert Flavour at the Vapouround Awards, especially as the winner, Sweet Lemon Pie, had only been on the market for one month. “We also took home Best Booth Awards at Vape Israel and VapExpo; while KonceptXIX Heisenberg won Best Mint at VapExpo, and Watermelon Mojito from our Shortz range won Best Beverage at Steam Show Mexico.” It’s not just award wins that have made 2019 so special for Vampire Vape and Flavour Warehouse: an increase in products, staff and even new business ventures have helped to put this year on the map and gives us all a taste of what’s to come. Philip says: “Flavour Warehouse has had an exceptional year, branching into the CBD market with the new company, Pure Earth, which specialises in CBD cosmetics and oral drops for the open market. “The company also made its first business acquisition by purchasing Northern Ireland company, Total Vapour. This move will help Flavour Warehouse become a more rounded company that can meet the needs of customers, providing both hardware and e-liquid with ease.” So, it’s safe to say that we can expect big things from Flavour Warehouse over the coming months as they develop relationships with the Total Vapour team, while also working on establishing themselves as a trusted CBD brand, too. It’s a huge undertaking, so the company has been hard at work expanding their teams and strengthening both of their businesses to stay ahead of the pack in these two massively expanding industries. “Given the market response to new releases and the continuous demand for vaping products, the business is set to develop its team, introducing new members to meet customer demand. Already the company has expanded vital areas to include more staff,” Philip says. He adds: “It’s with this that both Flavour Warehouse and Vampire Vape will continue to enter new markets and utilise market research to create products that meet the needs of our customers as well as keeping in line with current trends within the industry.” But let’s not forget that the Vaper Expo is only a few weeks away, so what can we expect from the team that brought you Vampire Vape, at The Return? Philip says: “We’re keeping a lot of things under wraps this year. We’ve gone all out to astound all those coming to the event and have revamped our style to give us the ultimate wow-factor. “As always, we’ll have exclusive deals on a range of our notable and popular flavours that will be exclusive to the expo. This October is going to be big and we’re ready to beat the competition!” VM25 45
