Oxford street's US sweet shops will never pay £7.9m tax bill, says council
Westminster City Council trading standards said complaints included out-of-date food and counterfeit "Wonka" bars.
Last month officials announced they had discovered nearly 4,500 disposable vapes, which allegedly contained excessive levels of nicotine or did not conform to UK standards. The council hopes the shops will all disappear from Oxford Street if more trusted brands move back into the area. It has set up a West End pop-up scheme which gives landlords up to a 70% cut in business rates if they allow start-up businesses to use empty shops.
The aim is to move landlords away from housing US-themed sweet shops and instead bring back "higher-quality shops to central London", the LDRS said.
