German department store denies removing Israeli products

Israel’s Channel 10 reported this week that Galeria Kauthof, a major German department store, had removed Israeli products.

The chain has now denied the report, according to the business journal Globes.

Galeria Kaufhof’s head of corporate communications, Gerd Koslowski, is quoted as saying, “Our company has not removed any of those products from the shelves. We import the goods via European importers who are responsible for correct declaration.”

He adds: “We do not get involved in politics with our assortment. Our core customer’s demands set the standards for the products we sell.”
