FYI Great Falls Distribution Introduces Its New Line of E-Liquids Called Proper Great Falls Distribution (GFD) has released its newest line of premium e-liquids called ‘Proper.’ This is the company’s eleventh line featuring flavours: ‘Fresh’ ‘Pomp’ ‘Swag’ ‘Fleek’ and ‘Dapper.’ Patrick Tanyag, the founder of GFD is proud to announce their recent line citing: “Proper Liquids is kind of like the greatest hits of a lot of the projects I’ve worked on over the last few years.” GFD already produces many other highly popular juices but ‘Proper’ is really getting people excited. Patrick said: “What makes this line different to the others is the actual flavour profiles themselves. They’re complex and unique with a comforting familiarity to them.” An ex-smoker of fifteen years, Patrick was first introduced to vaping in 2013 when his fiancé bought him his first e-cigarette on Valentine’s day. Prior to 202 ISSUE 07 VAPOUROUND MAGAZINE this he had never considered or had any interest in vaping – but since his first puff, Patrick has never looked back which came as a massive relief for his fiancé who urged him to quit smoking numerous times. Since then, he has gone on to become a vaping enthusiast – opening three vaping stores based all over Virginia, USA. The company focuses on manufacturing, marketing, international distribution of e-cigarettes, vapour devices and liquids. When Vapouround asked Patrick how he started in the vape business, he explained: “At the time there wasn’t much variety of flavour (e-liquid) to choose from in the area, so I started my own juice-making process. I went online, did my research and ordered my own DIY kit - and it really just picked up from there. My friends enjoyed it and I realised I had quite a knack for it. From there it kind of just snow-balled.” But success doesn’t come from a magic wand, so initially when they started out, GFD had to continuously change and upgrade their products and factories to improve the quality of their products. More recently they have revealed plans to build their newest and biggest lab in their new facility in Fairfax, Virginia. Locally, the company has done very well with their e-liquids, but GFD have bigger dreams and ambitions to take their brand and break into the international market. ‘Proper’ will be showcasing its e-liquid juices on the Vapouround bus at the Vapo Expo UK – The Return 2016 event at Birmingham, NEC – so be sure to look out for them and try out the new juices for yourself. Coming up in our next issue: Q&A with GFD on their e-liquids, brand ethos and plans for the future.
