Mideast Retailer Dumps Trump Products After Muslim
by CHARLENE GUBASH and F. BRINLEY BRUTON

CAIRO — A major Middle Eastern retailer has pulled all Trump-branded homeware products after the GOP frontrunner called for Muslims to be barred from entering the United States.

"As one of the most popular home decor brands in the Middle East, Lifestyle values and respects the sentiments of all its customers," Sachin Mundhwa, CEO of chain Lifestyle, said in a statement on Wednesday. "In light of the recent statements made by the presidential candidate [Donald Trump] in the U.S. media, we have suspended sale of all products from the Trump Home décor range."

Products such as Trump Home Lotion Dispenser, Trump Home Decorative Table and the Trump Home Basic Jewelry Box were no longer available for sale on Lifestyle's parent compant Landmark Shops' website on Wednesday.

Lifestyle has some 160 interior decorating, spa and homeware shops in the Middle East, Pakistan and Africa. It is part of Dubai-based conglomerate Landmark Group. The company would not disclose the value of its deal with Trump.
