Coast makes it easy for illegal tobacco smuggling to be industry in own right
Torquay – The close proximity of the English Channel to South Devon has made it easy for tobacco to be illegally smuggled.
It is an ongoing issue and it is increasing, particularly as a result of the high levels of taxation in the country. The level of roll-your-own cigarettes is higher than average in the south west, and they are easier to smuggle.
People are finding more ways to smuggle cigarettes into the country, be it legal or illegal, and it is having a massive effect on retailers.
