John Ooi’s journey perfectly embodies the “All Starts Different” philosophy at the heart of ASDF. More than a decade ago, in the fast-paced streets of Kuala Lumpur, John began building his career by selling vape products directly from the trunk of his car. This grassroots approach allowed him to cultivate authentic customer relationships while sharpening his instincts in market demand, quality sourcing, and user-focused product development—skills that now form the foundation of ASDF’s global success.
By 2022, John transformed years of hands-on experience into ASDF Worldwide, a brand that has since scaled rapidly and reached millions through flagship releases such as the Vapetape Tempo 30K disposable and the Neura closed pod system.
His evolution from street-level entrepreneur to CEO reflects a profound understanding of consumer needs. This insight is evident in ASDF’s flavor-forward e-liquids (20–50mg salts), child-lock-enabled devices, and its ability to navigate diverse international regulations. John’s early experience tackling Malaysia’s shifting vape regulatory landscape refined his compliance expertise, leading to achievements such as the successful European rollout of Chroma Pod’s Chromium Ceramic Coil TPD-compliant pods.
