Welcome to KoreanConvenienceStores.ca. We're a coalition of 2,300 Korean corner stores dedicated to fighting back against the illegal cigarette trade in our neighbourhoods.

Illegal cigarettes aren't a victimless crime -- smugglers target kids, they cheat our country out of billions of dollars in taxes, they profit organized crime, and they hurt your neighbourhood corner stores.

Learn more about this growing problem on our website. And join us as we fight back, to protect our communities!
