DiscountstorebannedfromsellingDubaichocolate

A discount store is temporarily not allowed to sell its Dubai chocolate because the Cologne Regional Court has issued a temporary injunction. The reason is that the chocolate is produced in Turkey and not in Dubai, which could mislead consumers.

The lawsuit was filed by confectionery importer Andreas Wilmers, who sells chocolate produced in Dubai.

The court decided that a product can only be called "Dubai chocolate" if it is actually produced in Dubai or associated with the region.
