Vaping Enters The Future With New Association

Denver, CO (MMD Newswire) February 11, 2015 — The US Vaping Association (USVA) offers trailblazing retailers tools to successfully navigate the challenges of Big Tobacco and Big Pharma.

Vaping is one of the fastest growing industries in the United States generating almost $1.7 billion in sales in 2014. Wells Fargo Securities predicts that e-cigarette consumption will overtake tobacco sales within 10 years.

The USVA equips vaping retailers with tools that solve their major concerns and free them to focus on marketing their business. Retailers are frustrated with the wishy-washy attacks of Big Tobacco, who lied stating that smoking was safe for pregnant women.

Retailers also have uncertainties about the source of the e-juice. They require suppliers with pharmaceutical grade quality products who are auditable and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved.

The US Vaping Association (USVA) is a nonprofit organization of independent vaping retailers in North America. They counteract the lies of Big Tobacco byeducatingthe public and government officials about the financial and public health benefits of vapor products.

The USVA supports FDA’s concerns that use of e-cigarettes could cause minors to smoke tobacco cigarettes hence itsproposed regulations. It is also concerned about the poor quality control, the variable nicotine content and the use of toxic ingredients such as diethylene glycol in e-liquid.

The US Vaping Association (USVA) addresses both issues by requiring its members sign agreement that they do not market to young people. Members are also required to list product ingredients on product packaging and the website.

Dina Obita, co-owner of USVA, realized that there was a gap in the e-cigarette industry. Too much energy was focused on fighting with the FDA and not enough time was spent on dealing with its valid concerns. So she created the association to fill in the gap.

Association members are trailblazing vaping retailers who apply high ethical standards in their businesses and operate them with integrity and professionalism.

Consequently, members join the association by invitation or by a recommendation from a current member. Also a vaping retailer may join the association by completing a rigorous application. The US Vaping Association is an elite, powerful and informed group hence members are handpicked.

“It’s time that the vaping industry realized that the Food and Drug Administration is not our enemy,” states Ms. Obita. “The FDA has the difficult job of ensuring that products sold to Americans do no harm. Let’s work with the FDA to serve the public.”

The USVA offers many benefits to their members including:
- Ask The Chemist - Consult with a chemist to create the best e-juice
- Wholesale credit to purchase stock on credit from reputable North American companies
- Q & A with prompt response to your concerns
- Point of Sale systems
- Distant learning opportunities
- Preferred rates on industry publications

The USVA is the association for elite vaping retailers who are ready to take their business to the next level.
