Vapor Corp. Announces Corporate Restructuring as Part of Strategic Plan to Reinvigorate Brand and Expand Retail Store Operations

Leading U.S. Distributor and Retailer of Vapor Products Brings in New Talent Following Recent Merger to Fuel Expansion

DANIA BEACH, Fla., April 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Vapor Corp. (VPCO) (“Vapor”), a leading U.S.-based distributor and retailer of vaporizers, e-liquids, e-cigarettes and e-hookahs, today announced its recent organizational restructuring to further maintain the Company’s competitiveness and establish its branded products and retail stores in an increasingly evolving e-cigarette and vaporizer market.

In conjunction with the recent merger with Vaporin, Vapor Corp. has taken a holistic approach to demonstrate the Company’s continued commitment to success, growth and innovation. To aid with this process, Vapor Corp. has brought on several new members to its revamped management team, including President and Director Gregory Brauser, Chief Financial Officer James Martin and new Board Member Robert Swayman.

Additionally, in an effort to further establish its national distribution network across the board, Vapor Corp. has developed new supply deals with key retailers and reorganized inventory to pave the way for vaporizers to support an increasing demand for these products. Vapor Corp. has also opened three new “The Vape Store” locations in Orlando and one in Port Charlotte. Looking ahead, the Company is poised to open an additional 20 to 30 branded retail “The Vape Stores” before the end of fiscal 2015.

“With new management, new stores, new deals and new products, Vapor Corp. is well-positioned to rise above the competition and take a leadership role in what is currently a highly fragmented e-cig and vaporizer market,” said Gregory Brauser, President and Director, Vapor Corp. “Vapor Corp.’s merger with Vaporin served as a catalyst for the Company’s future success and has helped to pave the way for us to cast a wider net in the industry. Our goal is to reach new and veteran vaping consumers and continue to spread the word about our stores and our products.”

In 2014, an estimated one-third of the $3.5 billion retail purchases in the U.S. were through the vape shop retail channel, accounting for a significant shift from c-store, food, drug and mass retail channels. As a result, Vapor Corp. is focused on leveraging “The Vape Store” retail chain and continuing its efforts to supply more vaporizers to meet the growing demand of the consumer market.

“Through streamlining operations and reorganizing our corporate makeup, our goal is to usher in a new era of sustainable and profitable growth,” added Brauser. “‘The Vape Stores’ will be a strong focus moving forward as the Company looks to provide new, innovative and high-quality products to the burgeoning marketplace.”
