Last year there were upwards of 12-thousand vape shops in the United States and an estimate 1-thousand manufacturers and wholesalers of vaping equipment.

Delmarva Public Radio’s Jacob Luque has this report.

Don Rush is the News Director and Senior Producer of News and Public Affairs at Delmarva Public Media. An award-winning journalist, Don reports major local issues of the day, from sea level rise, to urban development, to the changing demographics of Delmarva.
