Gamucci is headquartered in London, with additional offices in the USA and Asia. Gamucci are the pioneers of innovative electronic smoking products, that are more commonly know as Electronic Cigarettes, or E-cigarettes. The brand was established in 2007 and has invested heavily in R&D in order to bring to the market the most innovative range of electronic smoking (electronic cigarettes ) products. Gamucci products are completely non-flammable and use state of the art sophisticated micro-electronics.
The management of Gamucci have a vision of offering smokers a real life useable alternative to traditional cigarettes and to date our products are sold in over 55 countries worldwide, with logistic centres based in Europe, USA and Asia.
Gamucci does not manufacture or market its electronic cigarettes as a nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) but recognises that increasing numbers of adult smokers are choosing to switch to electronic cigarettes in place of - or alongside - their traditional tobacco products. All Gamucci’s products are manufactured to the highest quality standards in its own factory, and meet all existing consumer and retailing laws in those markets in which they are sold, including.
In the UK, the local Trading Standards Service http://www.tradingstandards.gov.uk and the Office of Fair Trading http://www.oft.gov.uk/ are responsible for ensuring that all products on sale in the UK meet all relevant UK legislation.
Gamucci notes the findings of recent research by Goniewicz et al, published in January 2013 in the respected journal Nicotine & Tobacco Research, Vol 15, Issue 1, pp. 158-166. This found that, in comparison to 15 other electronic cigarette brands on sale in the UK, the US and Poland, Gamucci ‘vaporises nicotine very effectively with about 70% of nicotine from the cartridge being delivered in the vapour and very consistently over 300 puffs (low standard deviation, mean SE)’.
Gamucci founders Taz and Umer Sheikh have experienced a tidal wave of award nominations during 2014, being nominated for a stunning six awards throughout the year.
The highlight of the year has to be a thoroughly deserved and long overdue nomination for Entrepreneur of the Year Award at the British Muslim Awards ceremony held in Manchester, which resulted in victory for the brothers.
Additional nominations came in the form of the English Business Awards and English Asian Business Awards, as well as the Asian Achiever Awards, being highly commended in Entrepreneur of the Year categories - further recognition of their hard work.
In June, the public overwhelmingly voted for Gamucci as the Best Electronic Cigarette Brand during an outstanding Consumer Choice Awards ceremony, solidifying our place in the hearts and minds of e-cigarette consumers across the nation. Gamucci defeated five other major electronic cigarette companies to take the crown.
The final nomination of the year and arguably the largest accolade yet, is Taz and Umer’s nomination in the Retail Entrepreneur of the Year category at the Great British Entrepreneur Awards 2014, in association with NatWest. The ceremony takes place at Old Billingsgate, London on Wednesday 19th November.
Here’s to another prestigious ceremony in November and further awards success in 2015!
