Help with Starting Own E-Juice

Hello Vapors,

I wanted to start my own e-juice flavors. So the questions i have are:

1. Where can I find Flavoring Concentrates? (Good Quality & Price)
2. How to legally sell my juices (Do i need to register a company, do they need FDA approval?)
3. How much can i wholesale each bottle for (prices that are average usually for wholesale)

Thanks

First, welcome to VU.

Qustions 1 and 3 can't be fully answered. You are going to have to do R&D. There are several Flavoring Concentrate Companies and only you will be able to decide what is best for you. Likewise with prices. Just start reading the DIY forum until you've learned enough to ask more direct questions.

Question 2. Each state has their own rules and regs for a business. You'll have to research business requirements for your state.

Everything you need to know for questions 1 and 3 are in these forums but you'll have to read them. It's a broad subject.

3. Depends on how delicious it is. How do you rate your mixes compared to other premium juices? Sitting next to a premium juice, would you buy it?

If you want to start a business and you don't have mixing chops or sensibility yet, go to ECX, buy the flavor line, and slap your logo on it. Every other B&M does it, not a very romantic idea I know.

Resale other premium juices as top shelf options.

If you want to mix it yourself, imo join the fold of aspiring vape-chefs in DIY and get some experience, then revisit business plan.

It depends on your goals, the demographic you want to sell to. That's why it's hard to give any definitive answer. It really is best for you to start reading reviews and DIY threads in general. I'd lean towards TFA for a selling business unless you are wanting to make premium juices and then you'd want a good knowledge of all flavorings.

Mixing can be as simple or complex as you want it to be. There is a demographic for both inexpensive, simple juice and more expensive, complex juice of your own recipes.

And it's fine to have the goal of selling juice and then learning how to go about it. You're on the right track. You just need to start reading so you have enough knowledge for more pointed questions, IMO.

Since sarcasm can be lost in text... redistributing a generic flavor line is probably the lamest thing you can do as a juice vendor, as common as it is. Those acrylic displays with 40 single flavors chill every DIY bone in my body, but I have succumbed to the convenience on several occasions from hole-in-the-wall cigar shops to get me through the day. So even cheap cranky elitist DIYers like me buy em sometimes.

Wouldn't feature them though. Cheap stuff. You could mix better with little experience, but mixing for distribution is work.
