About TrackElf

Built by vape people, for vape people

TrackElf started as a simple stock age tracker for independent vape shops. Today it’s the leading inventory intelligence platform for the UK vape trade — tools that protect margin, and data that informs decisions.

Our Story

It started behind a vape shop counter

TrackElf was born from a simple problem: vape shop owners were throwing away hundreds of pounds in expired stock every year, and nobody was building a tool to stop it.

The first version was a basic spreadsheet with conditional formatting. It worked, but it was clunky. So we built a proper tool — fast to log, instant to see, and accessible on any phone.

Today TrackElf serves independent shops, convenience stores, online sellers and wholesalers across the UK. The mission hasn’t changed: stop vape businesses from losing money to expired stock.

What we believe

Our principles

🎯

Tools that protect margin

Every feature we build has one question: does it help vape businesses keep more of their revenue? If not, we don’t build it.

📊

Data that informs decisions

We don’t do vanity metrics. Our reports show dead stock, turnover and ageing — the numbers that actually change what you order and what you discount.

👥

Built with the trade

We work with shop owners, wholesalers and compliance experts to make sure TrackElf solves real problems, not imagined ones.
