One of Trading Standard's roles is to advise businesses on keeping on the right side of the law. Officers out yesterday in Walsall town centre, with assistance from T2 St. Matthew's Police, giving info to retailers about underage sales and how to avoid them. #teamwork #challenge25

Two Walsall retailers 💓💓were fluttering when we visited them along with T3 St. Matthew's Police on Valentine's day, but for the wrong reasons. They didn't feel the love for us when we seized their illegal cigs and vapes which had 50x the legal amount of liquid! #heartbreakers 💔




Top tip - if you want to sell stuff, it needs to be on display & not hidden away. What's that? The vapes are more than 600 puffs & illegal &s ome contain THC? Ah, Trad Stds & T2 St. Matthew's Police will still find the £28k's worth & take them away! #opadvance Walsall Council CEnTSA


Another successful operation with T2 St. Matthew's Police targeting organised crime gangs selling illegal tobacco & vapes in Walsall. With the help of sniffer dogs Bran, Griff & Cooper, we found and seized 150k cigs, 1.5k vapes & 2.5kg tobacco! More details - go.walsall.gov.uk/newsroom/jigsa…
