Smokescreen: some vape firms pivot after FDA crackdown
78% Informative
Some e-cigarette companies have altered their business model or changed their corporate structure, according to a U.S. regulator and representatives of two companies.
Such tactics have complicated efforts to stem the flow of vapes lacking authorisation into the country, the FDA said in a statement to Reuters .
China 's Heaven Gifts transferred operations of its brand Lost Mary to a British Virgin Islands firm after the FDA ban on Elfbar .
The FDA has so far authorised just 34 tobacco- and menthol-flavoured vape products, all by big tobacco firms.
Ludicrous Distro says many unauthorised products, including from major tobacco companies, remain on the market unchallenged.
The American Vapor Manufacturers says the FDA 's reluctance to authorise flavoured devices deprives smokers of legal products that can help them quit.
