"On the heels of a very successful BIG Industry Show in California last week we are looking forward to attending the TPE Tobacco Plus Expo in Las Vegas this week. Our Pipeline of new products is getting a tremendous response and although most of these products haven't been released to the public yet they will be available via retail in the second and third quarter this year.
