SF reaches $3M settlement with companies who allegedly violated city's flavored tobacco ban

The San Francisco City Attorney's Office secured a roughly $3 million settlement on Friday with online tobacco retailers accused of breaking the city's 2017 flavored tobacco ban. According to the SF Standard, the nicotine companies were accused of going around the ban by selling their flavored products online. In a statement, City Attorney David Chiu said the online retailers - Rogue Holdings, Swisher International, and Northerner Scandinavia - "are not above our San Francisco laws and cannot ship banned products into our city."
