Hilco is seeking offers to acquire the intellectual property assets of Vapourcore Online Limited (“Vapourcore” or the “Company”) on behalf of the Joint Administrators, Simon Jagger and Cameron Gunn of Resolve Advisory Limited.
Vapourcore operated as a trusted, direct-to-consumer e-commerce retailer serving the UK vaping and nicotine alternatives market. At its peak, the platform generated revenues in excess of £500k per month and supported a loyal customer base of more than 55k email subscribers and 13k SMS contacts.
With strong SEO visibility, an established brand presence, and a drop-shipping model that supported high gross margins, the Company’s assets offer strategic value for aggregators, D2C consolidators, and category players seeking to acquire digital access to UK vape consumers.
This sale presents a rare opportunity to acquire a scalable e-commerce platform, a premium domain, an extensive customer marketing database, and advertising income streams from major global FMCG brands.
Offers are due Wednesday 2 April 2025 at 2pm BST.
All expressions of interest and bids are to be directed to Hilco in writing. Please contact Hilco to gain access to further information.
