Landmark bans Trump’s products over anti-Muslim rhetoric

By: Bedour Alraei

Dubai-Mubasher: Dubai-based Lifestyle, owned by Landmark Group has suspended sale of all products from the Trump Home décor range as a respect for the sentiments of all its customers, said Lifestyle CEO Sachin Mundhwa.

Presidential candidate Donald Trump may want to ban Muslims entering the U.S. but he is making millions from business deals in Islamic countries, according to CNN.

In the latest personal financial disclosure required by all candidates, Trump lists various interests in the United Arab Emirates, Azerbaijan and Turkey, and two new ventures in Indonesia.

Lifestyle’s action came in light of the recent statements made by the presidential candidate in the U.S. media as he called for Muslims to be banned from traveling to the U.S., Sachin told Mubasher via email.

Lifestyle is removing all Trump-branded products from the shelves of its 195 outlets across the Middle East, North Africa, Pakistan and Tanzania.
