jambogaz1968 Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 "TARTAN tat" kings the Gold Brothers have admitted selling Chinese-made cashmere clothes with "Made in Scotland" labels on them at a Royal Mile store. The company, which owns stores throughout Edinburgh, pleaded guilty yesterday to criminal charge of "misleading" customers. Trading Standards officers were tipped off that the firm was deliberately mislabelling cashmere garments, leaving customers to believe the goods were Scottish-made. Officers carried out test buys of the products after first tracing the supplier of the imported clothes, who admitted they were shipped in from China. The court heard that a member of staff at the shop admitted to investigators that he knew the product labelling was "inaccurate". A lawyer for the company, run by brothers Malap, Surinder and Galab Singh, along with nephew Dildar, admitted the charge at Edinburgh Sheriff Court.
