Report confirms customs raid on sports giant Adidas’ headquarters

Date:

Adidas says it has problems with customs and tax authorities. The world’s second-largest sporting goods company confirmed a report from “Manager Magazin” on Tuesday evening that a search had taken place on Tuesday at the company’s headquarters in Herzogenaurach and other locations.

A spokeswoman confirmed it was about “compliance with customs and tax regulations when importing products into Germany.” According to the report, Bavarian tax inspectors and customs officials were present at Herzogenaurach, the factory in Scheinfeld, Franconia, and at the logistics center in Rieste. near Osnabrück as a guest.

Preliminary climax of the conflict
The dispute has been simmering for years. The period from October 2019 to August 2024 is affected, the company explained. “Adidas is cooperating with the authorities and providing the necessary documents and information.”

These are questions that have arisen “also as a result of different interpretations of German and European law”. In any case, major financial consequences are not expected. Apparently Adidas has already made provisions.

Adidas hardly produces any goods in Germany. Most shoes and textiles are manufactured by contractors in Asian countries such as China, Vietnam and Bangladesh.
