Walmart made the move after receiving a letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in April scolding the company for selling tobacco products to minors, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday.
“While we have implemented a robust compliance program, we are not satisfied with falling short of our companywide goal [of zero tobacco sales to minors],” Walmart’s chief compliance and ethics officer for the U.S., John Scudder, said, according to the WSJ.
Walmart’s new restrictions will take effect July 1. The regulations will apply also to its warehouse chain Sam’s Club, Walmart said.
