Retailers support increasing the age for buying tobacco from 18 to 21 in the UK and introducing mandatory ID for under 25s.
While many retailers hold these anti-tobacco views, the study found 76% don't want to isolate local smokers from buying other products at their stores and 51% said their overall profits are reliant on the revenue.
"Retailers aren't anti-regulation; they know that good regulation can make their lives easier by ensuring there's a level playing field", she added. In terms of e-cigarettes, more than half of retailers said they expect them to become more significant to their business over the next decade. The report concluded that the Government should"not be deterred from introducing new tobacco control measures because of concerns about their impact on local retailers".
