Kings of Cocaine: How the Albanian mafia came to control Britain's drug market

They are sophisticated and smart and always hand in on time. From Europe on the streets of London, a criminal network is now on top of the list of the 5 billion drug market leaders”, writes prestigious newspapers “The Guardian” for the Albanian mafia that has controlled the drug market in Great Britain.

Something had started to happen on the night young men in the corner began giving advice. “You don't want to stay here long”, one said while refusing to elaborize why. Both were standing near the home of Crespe, a wealthy Gascoigne tower in eastern London, Hellbanianzas ' undisputed territory.

The gang, comprised of Albanian drug dealers, is now known locally for the violence, as well as the reputation distributed on social networks that are seen with Ferraris and 50 banknotes, gold rolls, and their nickname “youth”.

Gascoigne's wealth, built in the 1960s and occupying land heading south of the city of Barking in Thames, is their historic neighborhood and home.

It was getting dark, two other men appeared and said: “You must now go”, while the newspaper's close observer of this event was conveyed by those outside the tower gate.

Hellbanianz (the gang's name as it describes itself) belongs to the “retail game” of the cocaine trade. They are businessmen and doers of the Albanian Mafia street, the criminal union organised by Albania, who believe the National Crime Agency believes they are consolidating power within the world of criminal crime in the United Kingdom and on their way to an almost total takeover of the $5 billion cocaine market in the United Kingdom.

Musical videos of the glossal-made gang remind viewers “HB is ready for violence” and that they possess the workforce and firearms. However, police sources say, Hellbanianz occupy the lowest rate of the Albanian mafia.

To better understand the extraordinary growth of Albanians in Great Britain, you can climb to the 12th floor of the high blocs of Gascoigne's assets. From there, London's horizon, where most of its cocaine will be disappointed, stretches west. In the opposite direction, several miles across Thames extend the ports of giant vessels, where their cocaine is loaded with loads of pounds. But it's across the Atlantic, in the jungles of Latin America, where the Albanian Mafia story begins.

How Albanians came to conquer the market of Great cocaine is a lesson in criminality; the value of making friends with the world's most dangerous mafias; and the absolute threat of violence.
It started with a business model that was simple in cone
The corners but brave enough to overthrow the existing order. For years international cocaine importers worked separately from businessmen and their gangs. The price structure was different, depending on the purity of drugs; the higher, the more expensive.

Albanians rejected the whole pattern. They started negotiating directly with Colombian cartels that control cocaine production. Large shipments were organised directly from South America. The supply chains are kept at home.

The intelligence gained by British experts found that Albanians were providing cocaine from cartels for about 4,000 to 5,500 pounds, at a time when rivals thought they were getting a good deal using Dutch majority businessmen selling at 22,500 a kilo. Albanians lowered the price of cocaine and increased its purity. Massive shipments were brought to Great Britain. / Translate: Periscope
