It all started back in 2014, when one man with a passion for this new thing called an 'e-cigarette' decided to give it a go. With a small batch of vape products imported from China and nothing more than an eBay store and a garage, the idea was simple - help UK smokers find a better alternative to traditional cigarettes.
The response was bigger than expected. Not long after, our very first vape shop opened its doors. Later that year, our own e-liquid range, Franklin Vape, was born, and we started expanding into wholesale vape supply across the UK.
By 2016, we launched our online vape store - just a shelf of stock in a small office. But things picked up fast. That one shelf became a full office, then a single-story warehouse. As we grew, our team expanded to include family, partners and close friends. Ecigone became something more than just a UK vape retailer - a tight-knit crew, all in it for the right reasons.
