Company Response

Jörg Howe, Head of corporate communications, KarstadtQuelle

KarstadtQuelle statement in response to an article by Clean Clothes Campaign on involvement with Spectrum Sweater factory [Dhaka, Bangladesh

This is indeed a very dreadful incident...In early 2004, KarstadtQuelle had placed a handful of trial orders in the Spectrum factory. However, we stopped business after these orders...We are planning to go down to Bangladesh with a delegation and meet the relevant stakeholders in June.
