Nicotine vs Herbal Pouches: Which Should Your Shop Carry?
Both sit in the same fixture but serve different buyers and carry different rules.
Nicotine pouches
Higher compliance load (TPD-aware, labelling, possible notification). Loyal, repeat buyers. Typically stronger margin per unit.
Herbal pouches
Nicotine-free, lighter compliance, broader retail acceptance. Good for shops that cannot stock nicotine.
Recommendation
Carry both. Herbal widens your addressable shelf; nicotine drives repeat revenue. One supplier relationship can service both.
