U.S.-based Nicopure Labs announces distribution deal with Bulgaria's Vapor

SOFIA (Bulgaria), January 16 (SeeNews) - U.S.-based e-cigarettes and e-liquids manufacturer Nicopure Labs said on Tuesday it has appointed Stara Zagora-based Vapor as its distributor for Bulgaria.

"Following a review of business in Bulgaria, Nicopure Labs has made the decision to appoint Vapоr Ltd., a distributor for Bulgaria, effective immediately," Tampa-based company said in a statement.

“In the last several years, we’ve focused on building an international presence for our brands Halo and eVo,” Jeff Stamler, CEO and co-founder of Nicopure Labs said. “We’ve seen success around the globe, and are delighted to partner with Vapоr Ltd. to further expand our brand presence in the Bulgarian market.”

While the U.S. and the U.K. remain the two largest vape markets in the world, sales are growing rapidly in countries with large domestic cigarette consumption, such as Bulgaria, according to the statement.

Nicopure Labs, operating since 2009, has three main brands of e-liquids - Halo, eVo and Purity. The company's products are present on over 90 markets worldwide.

Bulgaria's Vapor, established in 2012, currently services about 70% of the vape shop market in the country, according to the statement.
