VapeCon 2018 - Innovations & What's New

[Silver]

We have asked the VapeCon 2018 exhibitors to tell us what is new and innovative on their stand this year.

We are in for a big treat this year with lots of new things to see and innovations to check out:

• Firstly, many of the exhibitors will be making their first appearance at VapeCon - so that in itself is new and worth checking out. This includes lots of international well-known names.
• Several exhibitors are using VapeCon as a platform to bring in new products for the first time to the country.
• Lets not forget juice launches. There are many new juices ready to get launched at this year's event.

In this thread we are going to highlight the innovations and what's new submissions from the exhibitors. To give a flavour of what's coming on 25 & 26 August 2018 at Heartfelt Arena in Pretoria.

Some exhibitors have opted to keep their innovations top secret and announce them closer to the time in their own subforums and other channels.

Happy to announce the first innovation for VapeCon 2018

This one is from COSMIC DROPZ

• New juice launch at VapeCon 2018 - PEACH MANGO JELLY

PEACH MANGO JELLY is a juice that has been worked on since the inception of their original Cosmic Dropz line. Cosmic Dropz is proud to say that it is some of their best work to date!

They are really excited to release this new juice and could not think of better place to launch this epic juice than Vapecon 2018!

This will be the second juice in their new Lollipop Eliquid Creations line. The first, Apple and Pine Hard Candy, was released in Dec 2017 after working on it for over 17 months.

"Kush Koncepts has spent the last year positioning ourselves as the link between vaping lifestyle and South-African culture. Our goals have been to assist the adoption of vaping in the country and we have done so by collaborating with local known celebrities such as DJ Lady Lea, Chunda Munki, YFM’s DJ Sabby and conversing with media, such as the Saturday Star on vaping related issues.

We have created our selection of e-liquids to be on par with international brands in quality, look and feel, while keeping the local culture and flavour. We have adopted multiple distribution channels, including: E-commerce, locally and internationally, domestic retail stores, clubs, bars and restaurants to increase the accessibility of our products."
