China to probe Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger parent firm over Xinjiang cotton

Quick Summary:

China’s Ministry of Commerce has begun an investigation into PVH Group over what it terms discriminatory measures’ related to Xinjiang.

The Ministry of Commerce revealed on Tuesday it has initiated an investigation of PVH Group under the framework of its Unreliable Entity List - a blacklist which could ban the firm from trade with China and prevent the flow of associated investment or people into the country.

China has launched an investigation into the parent company of clothing brands Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger for “discriminatory measures” related to products from its far western Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, a move likely to compound already fraught trade tensions with the United States.
