World Vape Show to become ‘most compliant’ after teaming up with MHRA

The World Vape Show (WVS) has announced a collaboration agreement with the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), the first and currently only of its kind, with the UK regulator.

The WVS, next taking place in Dubai on 16-18 June and then in London on 01-02 December, will work with the MHRA to put the tools in place to ensure exhibitors are compliant with UK regulations, giving retailers and buyers the confidence to make purchases.

“I’m absolutely delighted to announce our collaboration with the MHRA and have them endorse the World Vape Show’s UK events. 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,” Jake Nixon, Event Director of the World Vape Show, said.

Dr Laura Squire, MHRA Chief Healthcare Quality and Access Officer, added: “This and further collaborations are an important step towards the availability of fully compliant e-cigarette products in the UK market. 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.”
