Nordstrom will stop selling merchandise made with fur or exotic
animal skins, through all of its Nordstrom, Nordstrom Rack and Last
Chance stores and e-commerce sites, by the end of 2021.
The U.S.-based retailer came to this decision in partnership with
the Humane Society of the United States.
“We’re committed to delivering the best possible service and
merchandise for our customers,” the retailer’s chief merchandising
officer, Teri Bariquit, said in a company statement. “Delivering on
that commitment means continually listening to customer feedback and
evolving our product offering to ensure we’re meeting their
needs.”
Nordstrom’s private label brands haven’t used genuine fur or exotic
animal skins “for years,” according to Bariquit, “so extending this
policy to all the brands we carry is a natural next step for our
business.”
Kitty Block, president and CEO of the Humane Society of the United
States, added, ”We applaud Nordstrom for ending the sale of fur and
becoming the first U.S. based retailer to ban exotic animal skins.
This is a pivotal step toward a more humane business model and a safer
world for animals, sending a clear message that animals should not
suffer for the sake of fashion.”
