i couldnt imagine that ever happening , vaping is still a fraction of what ciggs make , who knows though
I agree with you Fid
Vaping will never out sell tobacco products there is a lot of hard core smokers who will never ever give up their cigs for vaping I know so many personally one was my uncle
wouldnāt stop smoking, in his mid 70s until 3 days agoā¦he died

However morbid this may sound, smokers are a dying race sort of speak.
With vaping being adapted to so quickly and the amount of conventional smokers slowly but surely declining, the vaping market was set to grow exponentially. Which is what weāve seen in the passed couple of years.
Howeverā¦ big tobacco also keeps track of that growth considering itās their territory being thread on. That is exactly why the FDA and TPD regs are in place now, to stifle the competition while they plan (read: scheme) to take over the market that is slowly making their numbers decline.
As Josephine already mentioned, quite a few of the tobacco producers are now researching how they can take a piece of the pie by switching their productrange to vaping. Because āif you canāt beat them, buy themā.
A lot of people seem to expect nothing but badly engineered cigalikes, but I know of at least one manufacturer that is working on a closed system that could rival some of the current single battery setups we use.
My condolences on your uncles passing.

sorry to hear that
this makes more sense , someone like philip morris having a vape department or whatever but i highly doubt a company like theirs will stop making ciggs to go completely to vape related products , vaping isnt just for ex smokers there are a lot of people who have never smoked that are now vaping which so it is something that is growing for sure
Philip Morris could stop making conventional cigarettes
Andre Calantzopoulos, PMIās chief executive, says he would like to work with governments towards the āphase-outā of conventional cigarettes.
In his first UK broadcast interview, he has told the Today programme that the company knows its products harm their consumers, and that the only correct response is to āto find and commercialiseā ones that are less harmful.
they could but wont , and we could all assume but until they do anyone can say what they think , imo i highly doubt it any business that would give up there most profitable selling product is crazy and if these companies cared they would have stopped making them long ago
