China is the world’s biggest exporter of fur garments; the European Union is the world’s biggest consumer of fur. Britain has banned fur farming on human grounds but members of the British Fur Trade Association turn over £500 million a year as the world’s largest buyers of pelts. Chinese fur could therefore end up on your high street. GEA found fur garments labelled “Made in China” amongst top fashion brands and as cheap, mass produced products in London shops. But even if the label doesn’t state it, the fur on your clothes could still come from China - there is no way of knowing.

Please help us speak out against this cruelty.
