COUNTRY ROAD PRODUCT SAFETY RECALL

Press Release
16 September 2016

Country Road has issued a product safety recall on the Country Road Indigo Elephant crew top, as we were not satisfied with quality of the garment, and in particular its press studs, during routine safety tests. The safety of our customers is our priority. We have therefore, as a cautionary measure, taken the decision to voluntarily remove the garment from our stores.

To date, 19 units have been sold in South Africa. The recall only applies to the Country Road Elephant Crew, Ages 0 - 24 months, Colour Indigo, Style no. 60197318. All existing stock of this product has been removed from our stores.

No other Country Road products are affected.

We have not had any customer complaints to date. However, customers who have purchased this product should please return it to either our Country Road or Woolworths stores for a full refund.

We know that South Africans trust Country Road for quality and we would like to apologise to our customers for any inconvenience caused.

Should customers want further information, they can contact the customer care line 0860 022 002 or send an email to custserv@woolworths.co.za.
