Convenience Store Products magazine releases complete list of top retailer-requested products of 2015

OAKBROOK TERRACE, Ill. --Convenience Store Products magazine—a publication produced by Winsight Media—released the full list of top retailer-requested products of 2015 in the c-store industry.

hot 100

The third-annual list is derived from individual products featured in editorial and advertisements in Convenience Store Products, from the August/September 2014 issue through the July/August 2015 issue. Any product with a reader service number was tracked, and a grand total of 7,574 requests for information about individual products were made by readers of Convenience Store Products.

Taking the No. 1 spot and reflecting big industry trends was CB Distributors Inc.’s Vapin Plus vaporizer pens.

“It should come as no surprise that the Hot 100 mirrors the recent trends in the c-store industry,” said Abbey Lewis, editor-in-chief of Convenience Store Products magazine. “Vapin Plus being the most requested product—and also the winner of CSP’s 2014 Retailer Choice Best New Product Contest—shows how retailers are still curious about the vaping subcategory.”
