VAPING NEWS: U.S. C-STORES [Product Ban Guidance]

“With the flavored vapor cartridge ban looming, NACS reminded convenience store retailers need to remove all cartridge-based electronic cigarette flavors, except menthol and tobacco, from the backbar by Feb. 6. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued its new policy on unauthorized flavored cartridges and pod-based e-cigarettes and vapor products in early January. The new policy does not include e-liquids and disposable vapor products. According to NACS, the agency’s guidance only states that retailers cannot sell the products as of Feb. 6, and does not ban the possession of the products in stores. However, the association advises retailers to take steps to remove the banned products from their stores as soon as possible to prevent any inadvertent sales.”
