A force for knowledge
We build insights and provide researchers with quantitative data while we see a need for forums to share and discuss alternative nicotine products and especially the oral nicotine category – its developments, challenges, and opportunities. Haypp Groups supported 2021 the launch of an oral nicotine symposium, “Post Tobacco”. The forum, which focuses on the meeting and knowledge sharing between regulators, trade, academics, NGOs, and public health activists, continued in 2022.
During 2023, we reduced participation in forums whose initiatives we were involved in supporting. Instead, we participated in more externally organised seminars and media events than ever before to discuss our sustainability efforts, our sustainable business model and public health.
The data we have is shared with external stakeholders, including suppliers and industry participants, but also researchers and other external parties.
Enlightening people for public awareness & understanding
Insights from our consumers’ data, and research from others, need to be shared widely. Within the general public, the consumers using cigarettes are especially important to reach. When understanding the relative risks of nicotine products, consumers can make their own decision and choose a smoke-free product and hopefully inspire others. We highlight others’ initiatives as well as take our own actions through different editorial and corporate channels, focused on current tobacco users to encourage them to quit.
Furthermore, Haypp Group also drives different industry initiatives where one of the strategic ones is the laboratory testing of all nicotine-containing non-tobacco pouches, called nicotine pouches or all-whites. Even though we are an e-commerce retailer, not a manufacturer or product owner, we allocate resources for the greater of the category, making the results public and ensuring availability for not only the industry but also authorities, decision-makers, and consumers.
