In June, Remake, a non-profit organisation dedicated to ethical fashion, claimed that the reality stars’ clothing company Kendall + Kylie was owned by Global Brands Group, a company it said failed to pay garment workers in Bangladesh for cancelled orders in February and March. “We would like to address the unfortunate and incorrect rumour that Global Brands Group owns the Kendall + Kylie brand and that we have neglected to pay factory workers in Bangladesh as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic,” the statement reads. “The Kendall + Kylie brand is owned by 3072541 Canada Inc, not GBG.” In the statement, the company explained it had worked with CAA-GBG in the past in a “sales and business development capacity only,” but that the clothing company does “not currently have any relationship at all with GBG.” Continuing, the Kendall + Kylie team said: “We know that these are trying times for the fashion industry and garment workers as a whole, and we continue to support all of our partners working in the factories who produce our products.” “We manufacture in countries all over the world and have not received any concerns from the factories who produce our goods,” the company concluded. GBG, which removed Kylie and Kendall's company’s logo from its site on 24 June, said in a statement to the DailyMail at the time: “CAA-GBG is the Brand Management Division of Global Brands Group and does not design or manufacture any product for Kendall + Kylie.” The Independent has contacted Global Brands Group for comment.
