World Vape Show South Africa 2027

World Vape Show South Africa is a B2B vape exhibition for the African market, focused on vaping, next-generation nicotine products and related technology, held in Johannesburg, South Africa, and co-located with World Tobacco.

The show gathers international and regional brands as well as manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, retailers and industry decision-makers, helping brands present products and expand African sales networks while giving buyers a focused way to compare suppliers and products. Zones cover tobacco products, next-generation nicotine products, vaping, and distribution and retail channels.

South Africa has one of Africa's faster-growing vape markets, with consumer demand and retail channels continuing to expand, and it is also a route for brands entering the wider African market; the local network of vape shops, distributors and online retailers is relatively developed, while distribution and wholesale channels in some regions still have gaps, creating partnership and market expansion opportunities for new entrants.

Since launching, the World Vape Show series has been held in Dubai, Paraguay, the UK and Indonesia, forming a series of exhibitions covering vaping and next-generation nicotine. The South Africa edition is co-located with tobacco events, connecting distributors, retailers and industry partners from Africa and other regions.
