K adults spent close to £7m on vape products between January and October of 2020 – but there are significant regional differences across the UK as to how vaping is perceived by both vapers and nonvapers, according to a survey of 2,000 over-18s by Vype. With around three million adults now vaping, the research

was carried out to delve into these regional variations. Q In terms of pure sales, London leads the way, spending more than double that of Birmingham residents in the same time frame. Purchases made by Londoners make up 40% of Vype’s total UK sales to date in 2020, and 83% of the sales from the top 10 biggest spending cities.
