The newest addition to Olney Businesses after a year of growth for new businesses in Olney is Tx Smoke and Vapes. Some may wonder why a new vape store is needed but adding any new business to the community is always a good thing. The new vape shop will help drive better competition for those using vaping and other products provided by the new store but it also brings additional tax revenue and jobs to the town of Olney. Jacob Morgan the night manager for Tx Smoke and Vape says that they sell more than just vape products but also cigarette, cigars and health products like kratom and body detox flushes which can when used correctly help curve the use of opioids. Morgan says in the future other products may be added to inventory. Tx Smoke and Vape is located at 1128 W Main St Suite C, Olney, TX 76374, hours of operation are Mon-Sat 10 a.m. till 9 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. till 8 p.m. and can be reached at 940-564-2242
