Disposable vapes have taken over. In just two short years, Elf Bar, Lost Mary and their various competitors have become a ubiquitous part of modern life.
In doing so, disposable devices have all but entirely displaced pod-based vapes like the Juul.
While many have noted the environmental impact of rechargeable devices being supplanted by single-use ones, there's been less discussion of the geopolitical aspect to this switch.
Because, the fall of Juul and the rise of disposable vapes in its place not only marks a move from a pod-based vaping market to a disposable one, but from an American-owned vaping industry to a Chinese-owned one.
In this second installment of my Vape-o-nomics trilogy, we're looking at what all this can reveal about the globalisation, geopolitics and growing tensions between China and the West.
