The U.S has barred the importation of merchandise from a Chinese sportswear company, after an American customs investigation revealed the company uses North Korean labor in its supply chain.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced the move against Li-Ning Company Ltd. on Tuesday, citing the Countering America’s Adversaries Act that prohibits the entry of goods produced wholly or in part by North Korean nationals anywhere in the world.
