WARNING LETTER M & K On Cumberland, Inc. dba Big Cloud Vape & Tobacco MARCS-CMS 637701 — July 15, 2022 More Warning Letters Warning Letters About Warning and Close-Out Letters Delivery Method: VIA UPS and Electronic Mail Product: Tobacco Recipient: Recipient Name Naser Mesleh M & K On Cumberland, Inc. dba Big Cloud Vape & Tobacco 4950 N Cumberland Ave, #5 Norridge , IL 60706 United States bigcloudy.vape@gmail.com Issuing Office: Center for Tobacco Products United States July 15, 2022 WARNING LETTER Dear Naser Mesleh: The Center for Tobacco Products of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently reviewed the website https://www.bigcloudvape.com and determined that the electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS) and e-liquid products listed there are advertised and offered for sale or distribution to customers in the United States. Under section 201(rr) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. § 321(rr)), as amended by the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act, these products are tobacco products because they are made or derived from tobacco and intended for human consumption. Certain tobacco products, including ENDS and e-liquid products, are subject to FDA jurisdiction under section 901(b) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 387a(b)). FDA has determined that ENDS and e-liquid products that are advertised and offered for sale or distribution on your website are misbranded under section 903(a)(7)(B) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 387c(a)(7)(B)) because your website advertising ENDS and e-liquid products fails to include the required nicotine warning statement. ENDS and E-Liquid Products with Advertising that Fails to Include the Required Nicotine Warning Statement are Misbranded Our review of the website https://www.bigcloudvape.com revealed that the advertising for several ENDS and e-liquid products that you sell, offer for sale or distribute in the United States does not include the required nicotine warning statement in the manner required by 21 CFR 1143.3(b). Examples include: Posh Plus – Creme Brulee and Naked E-Liquid Juice – All Melon. Under 21 C.F.R. § 1143.3(b), advertising for ENDS and e-liquid products containing nicotine made or derived from tobacco must bear the following warning statement: WARNING: This product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical. It is unlawful for a manufacturer, packager, importer, distributor, or retailer of ENDS and e-liquid products containing nicotine made or derived from tobacco to advertise or cause to be advertised within the United States any such tobacco product unless each advertisement bears the required warning statement (21 C.F.R. § 1143.3(b)(1)). Further, the required warning statement must meet the requirements of 21 C.F.R. § 1143.3(b)(2). Under section 903(a)(7)(B) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 387c(a)(7)(B)), tobacco products are misbranded if sold or distributed in violation of regulations promulgated under section 906(d) of the FD&C Act, including those within 21 C.F.R. Part 1143. Because your website regarding ENDS and e-liquid products does not include the required nicotine warning statement for these products, in violation of 21 C.F.R. § 1143.3(b), your ENDS and e-liquid products are misbranded under section 903(a)(7)(B) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 387c(a)(7)(B)). Conclusion and Requested Actions It is your responsibility to ensure that your tobacco products and all related labeling and/or advertising on this website, on any other websites (including e-commerce, social networking, or search engine websites), in any other media in which you advertise, and in any retail establishments comply with each applicable provision of the FD&C Act and FDA’s implementing regulations. Failure to address any violations of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. § 301 et seq., Chapter IX, relating to tobacco products including the tobacco regulations in 21 C.F.R. Parts 1140, 1141, and 1143, may result in FDA taking regulatory action. Please note that adulterated and misbranded tobacco products offered for import into the United States are subject to detention and refusal of admission. The violation discussed in this letter does not necessarily constitute an exhaustive list. You should immediately correct the violation that is referenced above, as well as violations that are the same as or similar to the one stated above, and take any necessary actions to bring your tobacco products into compliance with the FD&C Act. Please submit a written response to this letter within 15 working days from the date of receipt describing your corrective actions, including the dates on which you discontinued the violative labeling, advertising, sale, and/or distribution of these tobacco products and your plan for maintaining compliance with the FD&C Act.
