Beijing clamps down on Hong Kong brand Chickeeduck, citing design ‘advocates violence’

Hong Kong children’s wear brand Chickeeduck is facing difficulties manufacturing its products in mainland China. Owner Herbert Chow says his products have been seized by mainland authorities for “advocating violence”. After expressing support for anti-government protesters in Hong Kong, he has been accused by netizens on Chinese social media platform Weibo of being a “traitor”. Chow is now looking to have his products manufactured in Southeast Asia.
