NJOY plans to expand to 100,000 stores by the end of the year: FDA's first batch of menthol e-cigarettes sold in the United States

NJOY plans to expand its e-cigarette product sales network to approximately 100,000 stores by the end of the year, and continues to launch its first retail trade program, with the goal of helping it achieve optimal visibility and product display space in the retail market.

According to Cspdaily News on June 26, according to the first quarter report of 2024, NJOY, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altria Group, Inc., has expanded its sales network to more than 80,000 stores. The company recently emphasized that it expects to "expand to approximately 100,000 stores by the end of the year."

NJOY also continues to launch its first retail trade program, with the goal of helping it achieve optimal visibility and product display space in the retail market.

The expansion comes as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted marketing authorization to NJOY LLC for four menthol e-cigarette products, including NJOY ACE Pod Menthol 2.4%, NJOY ACE Pod Menthol 5%, NJOY DAILY Menthol 4.5% and NJOY DAILY EXTRA Menthol 6%. This event marks the first time the FDA has authorized a non-tobacco flavored e-cigarette product.

NJOY CEO Shannon Leistra said,

"With the addition of NJOY Menthol e-cigarette products, we now have a unique portfolio of FDA-authorized products to support adult smokers' transition to smoke-free alternatives. We believe these marketing authorizations are a testament to the quality of NJOY's products and the strength of the evidence supporting the authorization of NJOY Menthol e-cigarette products."

Paige Magness, senior vice president of regulatory affairs at Altria Client Services, said,

"The FDA's approval of NJOY Menthol e-cigarette products provides adult smokers and e-cigarette users with a regulated alternative to the illegal flavored disposable e-cigarette products currently on the market. We believe the NJOY Menthol marketing order is a positive outcome for public health."
