Blackpool Council’s Trading Standards team conducted an operation to target the supply and sale of illicit tobacco products between February 2022 and February 2023.

Large quantities of smuggled and counterfeit tobacco were subsequently taken off the market and destroyed by the authority’s waste management service.

The operation formed part of Operation CeCe – a joint initiative between National Trading Standards (NTS) and HMRC.
