Scandal on Hamburg's Christmas market: Real fur discovered for 5.90 euros!
An outrageous scandal shakes the popular Christmas market on Mönckebergstrasse in Hamburg! Real fur products were sold at one stand, including hats made of real dog fur, which were offered for only 5.90 euros. Animal rights activist Stefan Klippstein came across this horrific discovery and reported that many consumers would not suspect at such a low price to buy real fur. His alarming find led to violent criticism of both market visitors and animal welfare organizations, such as moin.de
In response to these incidents, the organizer, the R.K. & B.F. Hanse Event Veranstaltungs GmbH, taken immediately. A spokeswoman for the company emphasized the seriousness with which the information was followed and confirmed that the hats were taken out of sale. The stand operator assured that it was acrylic, but Klippstein has expressed legitimate doubts that the products were correctly marked. The incident draws wide circles and provides numerous discussions among animal rights activists, such as reports.
consequences and future measures
In order to give the Christmas market in Hamburg a more sustainable image, the organizer has announced that the organizers take strict measures to prevent such incidents in the future. "We immediately pulled these three hats out of circulation," said the spokeswoman. It was also clarified that the stand operators are held responsible for further violations of the labeling obligation. This includes possible consequences up to the withdrawal of your stand permit. However, despite these measures, there is concern that the sale of real fur may continue to take place secretly, since another stand offers products under the counter that is also not properly marked.
