Second Annual ECC To Be Held At The Ontario Convention Center in Ontario, CA September 5-7, 2014

Fast growing and trendsetting Southern California based vape shop and distribution company VapeRev (www.vaperev.com) brings an exciting year of growth and expansion to its participation as a Diamond Sponsor at the second annual Electronic Cigarette Convention (ECC) (www.ecc-expo.com), scheduled for the Ontario Convention Center in Ontario, Calif. September 5-7, 2014.

VapeRev, which is quite literally a groundbreaking force in the worldwide cultural phenomenon of vaping, was also a Diamond Sponsor at the inaugural ECC last year. ECC starts its days with Business to Business (B2B) only interactions before opening to the general public in the afternoon. Friday hours are 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. (B2B only) and 2 p.m. – 9 p.m. open to the general public; Saturday hours are 9 a.m. – noon (B2B only) and noon – 10 p.m. open to the general public; Sunday is open from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. with an after-party to follow.

“We are pleased to have the opportunity to showcase at ECC 2014 as a Diamond Sponsor,” says VapeRev Chief Communications Officer Amber Lee. “After being the first and only Diamond Sponsor last year, we knew we had our work cut out for us!  The general public will be expecting a lot from us and we have worked hard to ensure that we exceed any and all expectations. We’ve also worked very closely with all of the brands that will be featured in our area at ECC to bring an engaging and fun experience to all those that attend. With some amazing product releases and exciting giveaways taking place, the VapeRev Ballroom will be a ‘go to’ spot throughout the entire event weekend.”

Also proud to show the world the variety of e-juice brands that VR Distribution exclusively represents, VapeRev’s large dynamic exhibition area will feature many of the So-Cal based e-liquid manufacturers themselves. These companies include: P.O.E.T., MacSauce, RnD, Mr. Good Vape, Juice By Numbers, Midas and ReHAB.Companies that will also be displaying their products within the VapeRev Ballroom, but are not exclusively represented by VR Distribution are Mythic Haze,BoilerMaker, and Planet Of The Vapes. All of these vendors will be doing live juice tasting as well as other activities to help promote their brands.

Randy Freer, the creator of P.O.E.T., wishes to involve the public in the decision making process for their next flavor. At ECC this year, patrons will have a chance to try three of their recently developed, yet unreleased flavors. They can then submit their votes for what they want P.O.E.T.’s next flavor to be! Their flavors are exceptional, unique and delicious so no matter what, they’ve got something good on the way.

MacSauce is the most recent addition to the e-liquid lines VR Distribution currently provides. Marco Roman, the owner of MacSauce, is giving away the full MacSauceline each day. “With a following already, it’s time for everyone to get to know MacSauce upfront and personal,” says Lee.

Mr. Good Vape has a lot in store for this year. Gary Riddle, Chris Davis and their team have worked tirelessly to bring the public a unique booth that they will truly enjoy. The team will also be giving away several Circle of Mod complete setups during ECC, of which the winner will be chosen at random from the collection of Instagram submissions they receive. Currently, MGV is very popular brand in the United States, but they’re also in the process of spanning to other countries. By providing an in-depth variety of flavors, “The Godfather of Vaping” never fails to impress.

Eric Silverman and Andres Gomez are the personalities behind Juice by Numbers. Every number represents a different delicious flavor, with the latest Juice By Numbers e-liquid falling in at #7. They will be giving away a 40oz. bottle of #4 in 6mg, to one lucky person who participates in the Instagram contest they’re conducting.

Tony Riva and Danny Redburn of RnD are excited to finalize the creation of their latest juice flavor. The public will get to help pick the name for RnD’s fourth flavor, which is a delicious strawberry shortcake blend that’s being released at ECC.

Jason Davis and Robert Sage of Midas have many things in store for ECC attendees this year, including several daily giveaways of their complete sixteen-flavor juice line. With the quality ingredients and countless time put into creating each of their amazing flavors, VapeRev urges all ECC patrons to meet the Midas team and enjoy sampling their extensive variety of e-liquids.

Matt and Will of ReHAB give 5 percent of every sale back to the indigent recovery centers located throughout Orange County, and have since day one. They also plan to promote Instagram participation with ECC attendees as a way of submitting to the ReHAB Vapors giveaways taking place each day.

The owner of Mythic Haze, CJ Lewis, is excited to release his new flavor, Apollo, at ECC. “It’s a banana cake flavor which upon vaping, you will experience a ripe banana inhale with a warm cream cake finish that will leave everyone wanting more,” says Lee. “He will be giving away bottles of 120mL juice of the patron’s choice, as well.”

Hansel Delacruz and his team at Planet Of The Vapes are coming all the way from Sacramento to attend ECC this year. They will be releasing five new juice brands by Liquid Lineup, along with introducing their Caesar RBA (rebuildable dripping atomizer) to the public for the first time.

The BoilerMaker Vapor juice brand will be making its debut at ECC this year. “We are honored that they chose to release their brand alongside us and we’re excited to see the community’s response,” says Lee. Doug Hughes, Brent Brunner, and Jeff Brookes collaborated to develop this new juice line. Doug specializes in the manufacturing, Brent is an expert at branding and Jeff is a trained chef and leads the product development. They are releasing their very first three flavors, one of which is named Hammer, and consists of a hazelnut toffee flavor. It is very decadent and creamy without being overly rich. Anvil is a custard flavor. It’s very creamy, but it is also unique due to the ingredients which were utilized. Anvil doesn’t call for some of the commonly used custard flavor ingredients, in fact, it’s unlike anything else in this regard. The Chisel is a Black Currant Chocolate Merlot. The Merlot adds a different twist that will be a new and exciting experience for discerning palettes.

In addition, VapeRev will be releasing various new “mods” (vaping devices) at this year’s ECC. From Caravela Mods (Portugal) are the “Silver Series” Caravelas, which include a Vela Latina & Caravela Drip-Tip, all made of solid silver; and the stainless steel Caravela Drip-Tanks, which also include a Caravela Drip-Tip.
