Kaival Brands (OTCQB: KAVL) Embraces ENDS Reform in China

Kaival Brands announced that recent news from China regarding increased supervision over the e-cigarette category is a welcomed development for the distributor of the BIDI® Stick disposable ENDS. Having taken arduous and often herculean steps to remain compliant with all government regulations, Kaival Brands and the leadership at Bidi Vapor hope that additional supervision of e-cigarette manufacturing will help raise standards for the devices worldwide. "Creating high-quality, viable alternatives for adult smokers aged 21 and over is a difficult and expensive task," said Niraj Patel, president and Chief Executive Officer of Kaival Brands. "It's not for the faint of heart, but for us, it's a matter of integrity and our commitment to quality."

Patel went on to clarify, "The Chinese government's decisions will have no effect on Bidi Vapor or Kaival Brands and their respective operations, as each company has always been in full compliance with all U.S. requirements and regulations."

The state-run Global Times reported in mid-March that China's State Tobacco Monopoly Administration has drafted regulations that will pave the way for a new "market supervision mechanism" for the ENDS industry. The measure is now undergoing a public opinion phase until April 22, the Global Times reported. In 2019, the Chinese government halted the sale of ENDS on e-commerce platforms, the Global Times reported.
