Flavour Art FDA Deeming Regulation Update
Effective immediatley Flavour Art North America will discontinue all marketing including attending trade shows to solicit new clients, that we have not already committed to.
Focus for Flavour Art has and will continue to be at 123% focussed on advocacy supporting our trade organization Vapor Technology Associationhttp://vaportechnology.org ,#vta, #CASAA as well in Canada with CVA, investing in the funding of upcoming required litigation, and spending many days, hours and money flying back and forth with our lawyers to ensure Flavour Art have Tobacco Product Master File compliance prior to August 8th 2016.
We will soon also stop accepting new clients, not because we have anywhere close to majority marketshare over our competitors, we're not bigger just more committed to this fight. We only have limited resources to fully support the customers that are joining us with all their efforts to see a future for this marvellous harm reduction alternative to tobacco.
If you are an eliquid manufacturer and haven't read deeming regulation twice, have a bound printed copy with sticky notes and highlights on your desk, if you don't understand the importance of moving the predicate date through the Cole-Bishop Amendment, if you haven't joined a national trade association, if you aren't preparing a small war chest for investment in impending litigation, if you don't understand the complexity and requirements from your flavour partner to have even a potential to stay alive, sorry to tell you but your future is not looking bright.
This fight will be long, it will expensive but we can and will win. Flavour Art has been preparing for this reality for many years, continue to make significant investment into Clearstream Onwardwww.clearstreamonward.com to provide the required scientific evidence for eliquid flavours required in both TPD and now Deeming regulations.
We are the flavouring company that has and will continue to be about the long term. We are vapers, we are a fixture in this community we love, we will do everything we can to support a future for vaping.
Will you?
