Target Corp is making adjustments to its Pride Collection after facing widespread criticism from customers.
The company has decided to remove certain LGBTQ merchandise, including items from the LGBTQ brand Abprallen, following an increase in confrontations between customers and employees.
The decision to review and remove these products was made in the interest of employee safety.
Target spokesperson Kayla Castaneda stated that while some customers have provided constructive criticism, they disagreed with the product choices made by the company.
In addition to Abprallen products, Target will also review transgender swimsuits and children’s merchandise.
The scrutiny surrounding these products ranges from fit descriptions to the association with certain designers, such as British designer Eric Carnell.
Target is committed to creating a safe and inclusive shopping environment for all customers..
