The World Vape Show (WVS) has teamed up with the U.K. Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) making WVS the “most compliant” vape show, according to a press release.
The World Vape Show will be next taking place in Dubai on June 16-18 and then in London on Dec. 1. The partnership will take effect immediately.
“I’m absolutely delighted to announce our collaboration with the MHRA and have them endorse the World Vape Show’s UK events,” Jake Nixon, event director of the WVS. “With the UK leading the way in terms of government bodies supporting the vape industry, we are very happy to support this mission and continue to educate our audiences all over the world.”
Working closely together, WVS and the MHRA will put the tools in place to ensure exhibitors are compliant with UK regulations, according to the release. This will give retailers and buyers the confidence to make purchases, knowing they are buying quality products that are legal for supply across the UK.
“This and further collaborations are an important step towards the availability of fully compliant e-cigarette products in the UK market,” said Laura Squire, MHRA Chief Healthcare Quality and Access Officer. “We are working to progressively engage with similar shows in the future, so we can make sure that companies that exhibit their products at these events are compliant with the UK regulations.”
