EXPOSED: The Dark Truth about Britain’s Vape & Barber Shop Invasion | Express Report
BRITAIN'S SCANDAL: In this explosive investigative journalist Zak Garner-Purkis peels back the glossy, neon veneer of your local storefronts to expose the dark truth hiding in plain sight.
We hit the streets of Accrington, Lancashire, to investigate the impossible economics of the British high street. What we found raises serious questions about "ghost businesses," suspected money laundering, and the future of our local towns.
Despite a severe lack of customer demand, high streets across the UK are drowning in a sudden oversupply of vape shops and Turkish barbers. In this deep-dive investigation, we explore the shocking £2.62 million revenue "black hole" in just one Northern town, where shops sit empty, prices are impossibly low, and staff hide from cameras.
From corporate "phoenixing" and fake business addresses to potential links with illegal migration, this is the dark side of the modern British high street.
*Accrington has 15 dedicated vape stores. To break even, each one needs around 74 sales a day. But the town only has around 2,700 adult vapers. Spread perfectly across all 15 stores, that’s only around 180 customers each — or roughly 26 sales a day if they buy once a week.
And that’s before they compete with corner shops, supermarkets and the internet.*
