Is it worthwhile to engage in the snus-industry?
Snus, a product that has a wide range of different varieties.
You can never be sure to please another mans snus needs, does he utilise tobacco-free nicotine pouches?
Tobacco pouches? Tobacco with artificial flavoring?
There is just so many different kinds and the supermarkets are poking your eyes with their endless supply of snus.
This is a story my mother wouldn’t like me to tell, but, snus is the same for me as any other product or merchandise I have ever came across. I encounter something that I like, and, instead of being on the receiving end as a customer I would like to turn the tables around and start importing & supplying others.
If it is something I like, I can approve it and I started sampling nicotine pouches for a while to help me from my tobacco abstinence.
It helped me a lot and it was surprisingly tasty as well.
Immediately I put together a small task-force to help me navigate the treacherous pathways of the internet.
I needed names, email addresses of different people in power of companies that deals in snus.
Within 24 hours I had written 13 mails that I sent out to different sales agents of companies located in these countries:
Poland
Estonia
Germany
Poland
India
Sweden
Denmark
Lithuania
Poland
Germany
China

China
Within a couple of days I had received some replies, more often than not they far away from me and I would have to get a very low price to justify those transportation method through sea etc.
But, I got in touch two two polish companies that both wanted to penetrate the Swedish market and I had a video meeting with one gentleman called Mateusz and before the meeting I deep researched the web for documentation about the industry, what was needed to satisfy the regulations of the government, how we would be able to advertise for the nicotine products without actually advertising of them.
I winded up with a 36, or, perhaps 48 paper document that Gemini (Google’s AI) put together from researching how to import and sell tobacco-free snus.
I were able to drop down the price to €1.0 after I made fun of myself by talking about the fact that I have turned so fat I can’t even see my own cock when I take a piss. He stated that he fell in love with my sense of humour and would do me a solid.
It is not DDP shipment, so, I have to take care of customs on this project.
We have to buy 12 000 tins as MOQ, MOQ stands for Minimum Order Quantity and is often used in business inquiries.
So roughly 126 000 + heavy taxation due to the nicotine regulation.
That is roughly 200 000, I can imagine which would increase the cost per tin to 16kr.
This is seriously one of the projects that I am considering the most when we get HatakeSocial/TCG business to roll more autonomously.
