Towel Taken Off Market 22. júní 2006 13:06 Household goods store Rúmfatalagerinn has pulled a brand of towel from their shelves after it was brought to light that the towels might be made from child labour. The towels, made by the company Capri, are exported to Iceland from the Danish company Jysk, who buy them directly from the manufacturer. A few days ago, Danish television indicated that this manufacturer engages in child labour. "We have no interest in selling such goods," said Rúmfatalagerinn general manager Magnús Kjartan Sigurðsson. "The moment it was brought to our attention that there was some problem with this towel we took it off the shelves immediately." Department store Hagkaup has followed suit, by taking these towels off their shelves as well. - pfn News News in English Mest lesið Sá eini fagmenntaði missti vinnuna Innlent „Kynjafræði er pólitísk í eðli sínu“ Innlent Kviknaði í gömlum bústað við Rauðavatn Innlent „Allt sem er innan velsæmismarka verður tekið til greina“ Innlent Vilja fækka leyfilegum fjölda borgarfulltrúa Innlent Segir mjög litlar líkur á öðru gosi á næstunni Innlent „Þetta er risastór áfangi og gleðitíðindi fyrir Kópavogsbæ“ Innlent TikTok hólpið í bili Erlent Arndís Bára lögreglustjóri næsta árið Innlent Fangageymslur fullar eftir nóttina Innlent
