Consumer Product Safety Commission recalled Ivanka Trump-branded scarves because they did not meet federal flammability standards. In February 2017, department store chains Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom dropped Trump’s fashion line, citing poor sales. Other retailers such as Maxx Marshall’s, TJ Maxx and the Hudson Bay Company stopped selling her products, citing their public release policy for their release of their products. On February 2, 2017 after months of poor sales, department stores NeimanMarcus, Nordstrom and MaxxMarshall’s stopped selling Trump’s products. A 2016 analysis found that most of the fashion line was supplied by Chengdu Kameido Shoes in Sichuan and Hangzhou HS Fashion in Zhejiang. The Trump Administration called for the company’s release for their products in July 2018, but the company refused.
