A Rise in Global Online Tobacco Shops

 As technology advancements continuously transform business globally, the rise of online shops has emerged as one of the most disruptive trend among businesses. As smart phones, Internet of Things (IoT) and internet accessibility continually grow especially in the developing nations, many customers are shifting from conventional store visits to online purchases. Suffice to say that over 60% of the residents in urban areas undertake most of their market research and shopping online. While some industries took some time to join the band wagon, customer behavior over time has forced them to adopt the use of online shops where customers can easily check the products in stock as well as the associated information regarding the products. Tobacco shops, popularly known as smoke shops were initially hesitant to set up online shops. However, in the recent years there has been a rise in the number of online tobacco shops globally.

Online tobacco shops have transformed the smoking experience for tobacco lovers all over the world. Customers can now discretely make purchases that are delivered to their preferred locations. The online shops also have vast displays of all the tobacco accessories in stock as well as their respective prices which again enables the customers to make informed purchases online. Prime Puff Paper is one of the highly reputed tobacco online shop in Saudi Arabia. The shop is also the exclusive distributor and reseller of high quality tobacco accessories by Smoke Box company. As confirmed through an interview with the proprietor, sales have tripled ever since the shop in Dammam embraced the online shop idea which also came in with additional services such as delivery services to all the major cities in Saudi Arabia.
