TEMECULA, Calif., Aug. 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Hop-on, Inc.
(HPNN.PK) announced today its recently acquired USAcig's nicotine
products are in demand by several groups in China. China has banned domestic
electronic cigarette manufacturers due to lack of safety and
various quality reasons. Hop-on's nicotine is a US based
product that will supply China and
use US trade agreements to push its products in China.
Recently, an international study published in the Journal of the
American Medical Association, shows smoking in China is on the rise and Chinese people are
taking up the habit at an earlier age. China, the world's
largest tobacco producer, is also its biggest consumer - more than
300 million men and 20 million women smoke.
China accounts for a third of
all cigarettes smoked worldwide, and about 3,000 people die every
day here from smoking-related illness, according to the World
Health Organization. Cigarette smoke contributes to four of
the five leading causes of death in China, WHO says.
Peter Michaels, CEO of Hop-on
stated, "Since China is the largest population, largest smoking
population and four of the five leading causes of death are
attributable to smoking in China,
Hop-on is targeting Chinese officials using the statistics from
smoking related illnesses and deaths of Hop-on's US based nicotine
products as a smoking alternative in the China market. Since China has banned its own electronic cigarette
manufacturers, Hop-on will us its business connections in
China and the power of the US
Government trade agreements to sell its products in the Chinese
market."
