UK adults spent more on vaping products in 2019 than any other nation, according to new report.

This latest report, developed by Statista, shows statistics on the total consumer spending on e-cigarettes in the UK in 2019.

Each adult spent around £33, generating a revenue of £2.5bn. This accounts for almost 17 percent of the global market share.

US spending followed at £5bn or £14 per capita, followed by New Zealand at £142m or £30 per capita.

The global market has grown by almost 20 percent since 2012 and is projected to hit almost £19bn by 2023.

Interestingly, the US market has continued to grow at a steady pace despite the recent spate of vaping scandals.

The FDA recently announced a ban of flavoured pods in a bid to curb the so-called teen vaping ‘epidemic.’

However, the ban does not affect disposable, single-use devices. This has reportedly led some teens to switch to closed pods rather than quit vaping altogether.
