Juul owns 70% of the vape market.

The parent comment is referring to the explosion of standalone vape shops that sell a wide variety of products. Not a reference to Juul being a small company. This is the biggest fail in all of this, there have been a huge number of successful shops opening up that are all but put out of business by these bans.

70% of a cherry picked subset of the market that excludes vape shops and online.
