Tanita

Precision and Quality for Smoke Shops and Dispensaries

Founded in Tokyo in 1944, TANITA has built a reputation as a global leader in precision measurement tools, especially in healthcare and fitness. With its U.S. headquarters in Arlington Heights, IL, TANITA now brings this expertise to the smoke shop and dispensary sector, offering retailers high-quality, accurate mini scales that set a new standard in a market traditionally dominated by lower-quality, generic options.

TANITA’s entry provides an assurance of trusted performance, allowing retailers to offer products backed by 80 years of craftsmanship and innovation.

Joseph Han, TANITA’s Director of New Business Development, views this expansion as a natural step forward. “We’re excited to provide smoke shops and dispensaries with our trusted models,” Han explains. “In a market where accuracy and durability are essential, our scales allow retailers to focus on their business, knowing their customers receive only the highest quality.

TANITA Product Spotlight:

The 1479 Series and Tangent Mini Scales

The 1479 Series: Setting the Gold Standard in Mini Scales

1479V: Recognized for over 30 years as TANITA’s best-selling mini scale, the 1479V sets a benchmark for precision. Its feather touch sensitivity, supported by Electrostatic Capacitance Load Cell technology, provides a capacity of 120 grams with 0.1-gram precision, ideal for detailed weighing needs. A favorite among professionals, the 1479V offers consistent, clear readings, reinforcing TANITA’s status as a trusted choice in mini scales.

1479J2: TANITA’s flagship model, builds on the 1479V with a reverse blue backlit display for enhanced visibility, a precision upgrade to 0.01 gram, and a capacity of 200 grams. With six measurement modes (Gram, Ounce, Carat, Troy Ounce, Pennyweight, and Grain), the 1479J2 offers versatility and professional accuracy.

1479Z: Weighing just 3.7 ounces, the 1479Z is 33% thinner than the 1479V, making it TANITA’s most compact model. This slim, portable design is ideal for users who prioritize space and convenience without sacrificing TANITA’s precision.

1479S 300GD: Built for rugged durability, the 1479S 300GD features a reinforced frame, protective hard cover, and a 300 gram capacity, offering enhanced resilience and measurement range compared to other models.

The Tangent Series:

This series features the KP-104-200 and KP-104-300 models and combines portability with precision in an affordable package. Weighing just 3.5 ounces, each model offers a 200- or 300-gram capacity and includes a sturdy, foldable hard cover for added protection. Ideal for on-the-go use, the Tangent series provides reliable accuracy at a budget-friendly price, perfect for retailers meeting diverse customer needs.

Why TANITA Stands Out Among Mini Scale Providers

In a market often filled with disposable, low-cost mini scales, TANITA’s commitment to quality, accuracy, and durability is unmatched. As a brand with over 80 years of experience supporting professional and personal health measurements, TANITA now extends this legacy to smoke shop owners with products they can trust to perform and endure. Crafted in Japan (with the exception of the Tangent model), TANITA mini scales bring a mark of quality that helps retailers build customer confidence in their purchases.

TANITA’s mini scales provide a premium alternative to generic options, many of which lack the brand recognition and durability that TANITA offers. This reliability allows shop owners to confidently promote TANITA scales as trusted, high-accuracy tools their customers will appreciate, setting a new standard in this market.

Engaging Directly with Retailers

To further strengthen our presence in the smoke shop and dispensary sector, TANITA will connect with audiences at trade shows such as CHAMPS, NECANN, and the Alternative Products Expo. These events offer a platform to showcase TANITA’s products and engage directly with retailers, demonstrating how TANITA’s values and products can benefit the smoke shop and dispensary markets.

Future Goals and Support for Retailers

As TANITA expands into this sector, we remain committed to supporting retailers through tailored advertising, engaging trade show presentations, and dependable customer support. In the coming months, we plan to highlight testimonials from retailers to showcase how TANITA mini scales enhance retail experiences, offering peace of mind to shop owners and their customers.

With a legacy of quality, accuracy, and innovation, TANITA aims to bring this same commitment to smoke shop retailers, providing products that elevate their offerings in a growing industry. For retailers seeking a dependable brand with a reputation for trusted performance, TANITA’s mini scales offer a compelling choice. Learn more about our product offerings at www.TANITA.com
