Contraband cigarettes in Île-de-France: exasperated tobacconists go on the offensive. The illegal parallel market is exploding and tobac Conists are losing up to 30 or even 40% of their turnover.

It’s becoming a real social phenomenon. All day, around fifty tobacConists traveled throughout Îlle- de-France, to raise awareness of the “scourge” of the sale of contraband cigarettes. The operation was organized by the Chambre syndicale des tobac conists d'Île de France.
