United Colors of Benetton show their true colors of anti-Semitism
United Colors of Benetton are using their strong corporate powers to bully Jewish owned UCB stores. United Colors of Benetton is operated as a franchise, meaning that all stores are privately owned but must order from the same supplier. UCB headquarters regularly conducts sales around the secular Holidays offering up to 50% off their clothing line. Being that Boro-Park does not celebrate these Holidays, the store owner of the Boro-Park branch made his sale for Chanukah. UCB headquarters was not very happy that one branch failed to comply with the timing of their Holiday sale. Even after repeated explaining about the unique religious situation they would not budge in their position. As a means of punishment for the non-compliance with Holiday sales, orders placed by the Boro-Park branch of UCB just didn't arrive, leaving the store no merchandise to sell.
