Market Size Surpasses $100 Billion: What Is Driving the Vast Potential of Overseas Vaping Markets?

In the past two months, electronic vaping has re-emerged in the capital market, continuing to rise and becoming a major trend in the market.<\/p>

<\/p>

Is overseas going to be the next market for domestic electronic vaping brands to compete for? DKECE takes you to explore today.<\/p>

Mutual Competition: Only the Strong Will Stand Out <\/strong><\/p>

From the perspective of industry competition, the number of domestic electronic vaping brands has been increasing in recent years, leading to intensified competition. The competitive landscape is mainly divided into two tiers: the first tier consists of well-known, large-scale companies with strong R&D capabilities, such as Mikewell<\/strong>, Zhuoyue<\/strong>, etc., while the second tier consists of small and medium-sized enterprises. <\/p>

On the other hand, domestic regulatory agencies have issued guidelines on promoting the construction of a quality assurance system for exported electronic vaping products. Although the control over electronic vaping products has been further strengthened, we need to view this from a dialectical perspective, as it undoubtedly encourages many small and medium-sized enterprises that do not meet the requirements to accelerate their development, which is undoubtedly a boon for the healthy ecological development of the entire market.<\/p>

In the future, more brands are expected to emerge from the current environment and appear in our sight.<\/p>

Overseas Market Vitality Emerges<\/strong><\/p>

According to the "Blue Book on the Export of Electronic Cigarettes" jointly produced by the China Electronic Chamber of Commerce Electronic Cigarette<\/strong> Professional Committee and two other organizations, the global electronic vaping market has surpassed $100 billion!<\/p>

From the data performance, overseas has become an important market for many companies to explore.<\/p>

Taking the European market as an example: EU countries have slightly different details and control measures regarding electronic vaping, but they generally maintain an open attitude! Most countries have relatively low tax rates on electronic vaping products, and countries like the UK implement a 0% consumption tax rate on electronic vaping. In addition, restrictions on flavors are also relatively low.<\/p>

<\/p>

In terms of scale, due to the UK's relatively open attitude towards electronic vaping, the entire country's electronic vaping scale remains the largest.<\/p>

Moreover, the Southeast Asian market's potential should not be underestimated. As a region known for tourism, economic development, and cultural exchange, Southeast Asia has a large potential consumer base and vast market space, with a young population ratio that brings new vitality to the electronic vaping industry, becoming a blue ocean market that global electronic vaping companies are competing for, providing rare business opportunities for domestic electronic vaping brands!<\/p>

As a result, domestic electronic vaping companies have also chosen to go overseas. According to official data, Shenzhen's electronic vaping exports reached 26.2 billion yuan in the first half of 2023, a year-on-year increase of 35.8%, with private electronic vaping brands in Shenzhen experiencing a 42% year-on-year increase in exports, reaching 6.1 billion yuan.<\/p>

For example, Xiaosong Co., Ltd. (002723) has completed coverage of the entire industrial chain of electronic vaping products and has launched multiple electronic vaping products in overseas markets, hoping to open up overseas markets. Run Du Co., Ltd. (002923) has also announced an expansion of supply for electronic vaping components for overseas markets, as the demand is clearly there.<\/p>

Therefore, these two years have become a critical period for electronic vaping companies to transform, on one hand seeking survival by exploring overseas markets, and on the other hand waiting for the purification of the domestic market, waiting to bloom. Does this market excite you?<\/p>
