Vape Expo Poland : Great Show , Great People and a Huge Mix Up At McDonalds …

by Matt Coupland

We landed in Warsaw on the Thursday morning , ready for the set up day . When we got to the the expo hall , there was no sign up yet but we just followed the vape trail . As soon as we noticed some guys vaping outside we immediately knew that we were in the right place . As soon as we got into the hall we met up with Anna , the lovely lady in charge of the proceedings . She greeted us with a big smile and she was full of enthusiasm , just the kind of woman you needed to take charge . She was a big help and answered all the questions we had given her , in fact her whole team was more than helpful . The place itself was lively with people running around everywhere - building stands , putting juices away , filling tanks , making coils and getting drippers ready for people trying samples . There was also the odd few half asleep , just chilling , having a vape and probably tired from their long haul flight . There were companies from all over the world including the USA , Poland , Russia ,
92 VAPOUROUND MAGAZINE USA and Canada , to name just a few . We quickly went along and set up our stand and put some magazines on racks and some on the main desk at the front ready for the eagle-eyed businessmen and woman .
“ The theme with most of the juices over there was of some kind of cooling or menthol - it seem to be the most popular but with the hot weather it went really well and I was given loads to take back for reviews and for myself to vape .”
As soon as we finished , we went back to the hotel via the crazy taxi driver and then got ready to go out and have some well-deserved food . We found a nice place in the middle of all the hustle and bustle of the town centre . The food was great , the beer to also was very cheap and , in fact , we went there the following day for more food .
Day 2 the business day
We woke up early and filled our stomachs ready for a busy day ahead . By the time we arrived at the expo hall there was already a bit of a queue waiting for the doors to open . One was a mod maker who made mods out of pokéballs , which is strange but they looked pretty awesome none the less . There was also a guy from the USA dressed in traditional Japanese clothing who had a knuckle duster mod he had made himself . I spent most of my time at the show talking to everyone from small to big time business owners . There must have been at lest 50 stalls from all over the world there , all ranging from juices to mods . I came across some amazing flavours and some good quality mods .
