The partnership follows in the footsteps of previous successful collaborations between Totally Wicked and high-profile retail outlets.

Since 2008 Totally Wicked has been empowering smokers to transform their lives with a safer alternative*.

Marcus Saxton, Totally Wicked CEO said:

“We are delighted that a selection of our premium Totally Wicked products will be sold through such prestigious retailers. This continues to support our shared purpose of ‘enabling smokers to transform their lives’ by providing access to the Totally Wicked brand in locations where millions of smokers/vapers find it most convenient to purchase.”

There are more than 3.6 million vapers in the UK. As the market grows, vaping consumers are becoming more demanding; expecting the best quality, well known brands to be available as part of their habitual purchasing routine. With cigarettes still being readily available at all major supermarkets & convenience stores, it’s essential to also provide safer alternatives with the same level of convenience.

Whilst the vaping category is still in its relative infancy, it has grown at an astonishing rate over the last 11 years, and is now c£1.2b in scale**. It is the combination of space to sales ratio, combined with the overall commercial return, that makes the vaping category so attractive to retailers. Many of the traditional FMCG category disciplines are now evident, whether this be category/need based merchandising, clear beacon brand leaders emerging from a fragmented supply base, and innovative display solutions enabling ease of shopping, away from traditional gantries, which limit shopper engagement.

Totally Wicked has continued to lead many of these milestones within the category; their iconic logo personifies their ‘challenger’ status around ‘doing the right thing, and standing up for the people to challenge big tobacco’, and their fabulous category leading innovation, including the hugely successful Red Label range, OTIUM CBD vape liquid, to the recent Totally Wicked byte closed pod device, plus 11 years of e-liquid expertise.
