Aberdeenshire Trading Standards were out in Portlethen earlier today conducting a Test Purchase Operation for cigarettes and vapes. We were pleased to find that all premises visited declined to sell our 17 year old Test Purchaser these goods when she could not produce ID (by design).

If you have any concerns about the sale of tobacco products, cigarettes or vapes in Aberdeenshire either from shops, dwellings or on the street, you can report this in complete confidence by e-mailing: trading.standards@aberdeenshire.gov.uk
