2FIRSTS | BAT Calls for Retailer Input in Future Nicotine Regulations
Summary
British American Tobacco (BAT) has urged UK retailers to play a larger role in shaping forthcoming nicotine product regulations, arguing that frontline market feedback is essential for effective policy. Retailers, BAT says, are closest to consumers and can provide insights into demand, buying behavior and compliance challenges, especially as the UK enforces new rules such as the disposable vape ban, the Vaping Products Duty and measures to curb illicit sales. By involving retailers earlier, BAT believes regulators can design more practical and enforceable rules that balance public health goals with business realities.
