Thus Dubai is providing a broad space for the development of vaping products logistics business. Therefore, they have notice the considerable demand in the Middle East market and think Mid-East market is an attractive growth opportunity.

The logistics and freight forwarders need to consider the openness of surrounding areas so that it can radiate to the entire Middle East. If the surrounding areas are not open, then the Dubai vape market still needs further investigation and research.
