I'm an eliquid contract packager

You clearly have little understanding of the vape market, otherwise you would realize this is the worst time to open a shop.

The fda just announced regs that will put 99.9% of eliquid and device manufacturers out of business- it goes in effect in roughly 2 years time.

>such as a good location for my store, a good idea for the store. If you have to ask, it's a vape cafe/hangout place/lounge, but I won't go further than that
>good idea for the store
you won't go further into that because you don't have anything to go into

I have a vision of what the lounge will be like, I can go into it, the interior will need to have great ventilation obviously, the theme of the lounge will have a violet colour code as this is known to help people relax, I already know the name of the place and am currently designing a draft of the logo, then I'll have a professional graphic designer improve it to how I want it to be. We will have the usual stand found within the lounge in any regular vape store where there will be e cigarette mods, atomizers, tanks, etc for sale. On the stand we will have a huge variety of flavours to choose from for sampling as well as to buy 2.5ml, or 5ml tanks to smoke while in store, and you can also order desserts, coffee, panini sandwiches, grilled chicken and lamb dishes, mocktails, etc. I'm going to make the wifi free to use for customers. We will market the place to young adults mainly through social media, tobacco smokers that want to quit tobacco, so if we were located in a district with a lot of buisnessmen, and near a pub and a busy train station, there would be a ton of buisness for us too, if the exterior of the store is enough of an eye catch. It can be successful if I can find good wholesalers for liquids, I have already found a contact in china to sell the mechanical products to me for a good deal which I can sell for at least a 25% to 40% profit in the store. This is the basic idea of the store. Now if we take into consideration of stuff like accounting, legalities, this is where I need to research.

I know about the new regulations, I have read about them in the news, I still want to try. Keep in mind I live in the UK, and the regulations are less harsh on us than USA. I heard that tanks with more than 2ml will not be allowed, and thats fine to me.

I don't know a ton about the UK market. But I would recommend talking to a contract filler out there to create your own line of eliquid (they can usually do it turnkey. It's far more profitable to carry your own eliquid a rather than the major brands. In the US you can pay less than 2-3 bucks per bottle and sell at an insane mark up. You just have to make sure you are using a reputable contractor.
