New vapor shop opens in Riverside

Vapor Haus today opened its third Dayton-area location and fourth overall at 5564 Airway Road in the Page Manor Shopping Center in Riverside, Vapor Haus co-founder Chris Voudris said this morning.

“We are having a soft opening today and will be having a grand opening soon,” Voudris said.

Vapor Haus also operates e-cigarette shops in Dayton’s Belmont neighborhood and in the Fairmont Plaza Shopping Center in Kettering, as well as a location in Fairfield.

The Page Manor Vapor Haus is the latest entry into the e-cigarette and vapor retail market in the Dayton and Springfield areas, which has seen several stores that cater to e-cigarette users open in the last three years.

The vapor shops serve customers looking for an alternative to smoking cigarettes. Tobacco-free e-cigarettes are battery-operated devices that heat liquid nicotine and flavors into a vapor that the user inhales. State law prohibits sales of the devices to minors, and federal regulators have proposed increased oversight over the devices.

Voudris said he is planning more shops in the Dayton area, but has not signed leases on any other spaces.
