🚫 Another illegal to***co retailer closed in Lichfield

Our Environmental Health team, working alongside Staffordshire County Council Trading Standards and Staffordshire Police, has secured a court order to close Mini Market on St John Street following the seizure of over 11,000 illicit ci******es and 3.3kg of illegal to***co worth more than £6,600.

Cannock Magistrates’ Court granted a Closure Order for three months – the maximum period allowed in law. This is the strongest immediate action available to shut premises, protect the public and disrupt criminal trading.

This is now the fourth shop closed in just over two months. If you suspect illegal sales, report them confidentially via Staffordshire Trading Standards on 01785 330356 or Citizens Advice on 0808 223 1133 or link in the comments.

We are keeping busy having recently trained 30 people from 10 retailers/licensed premises across Lichfield City Centre.

If you would like training please PM us.

Working in partnership and with citizenAID - lets try and keep our communities safe and save lives.
