What World Of Smoke & Vape Llc does

World of Smoke & Vape LLC is a Florida-based specialty retailer founded in 2014 that operates a multi-state chain of 60+ smoke and vape storefronts across Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Colorado, and Washington, with the heaviest concentration in South Florida. The company sells a broad assortment of vaping hardware and disposables, hand pipes and glassware, hookahs and shisha, e-rigs and dabbing accessories, premium cigars, and adjacent products such as Kratom and Delta THC items, alongside branded third-party products from Geek Bar, Lost Mary, RAZ, SMOK, Puffco, RAW, and GRAV Labs. Revenue is generated primarily through in-store retail sales, supplemented by an e-commerce storefront (shopwosv.com), a branded mobile app for loyalty rewards and delivery (AIQ), and a franchise program that requires a $45,000 franchise fee and $250,000-$400,000 total investment per location.

The company has no proprietary technology stack beyond a consumer-facing mobile application and standard e-commerce infrastructure; its core assets are physical retail locations, brand positioning, and supply-chain relationships with recognized vape and accessory manufacturers. Customers are segmented into adult consumers (21+) shopping walk-in for lifestyle and recreational products, and franchise investors seeking to open branded locations. The business model is asset-intensive and operationally distributed, with per-store economics driven by foot traffic, regulatory environment, and category mix (disposables typically form the highest-velocity SKU family).

World of Smoke & Vape pursues a multi-channel marketing approach spanning local SEO via individual location pages, an Instagram presence, a content-heavy blog covering vaping education and product guides, and an email/SMS loyalty program. The company is privately held, founder/management-controlled, with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, M&A activity, or leadership changes in the available data. Operating geographies are exclusively U.S. domestic, though a UK country selector and UK contact email appear on the website, indicating exploratory international outreach.
