Germany's Consumer Products Digest

AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

German Auto Industry: Volkswagen posted a €5.86 billion Q3 operating loss, its worst since Dieselgate. A Porsche writedown, falling sales in China and U.S. tariffs weighed on the carmaker. Sportswear: Adidas reported record Q3 revenue and a 14th straight quarter of sales growth in China, but sales in Europe fell 4%. It expects the region to return to growth in Q4. Shopping and Safety: Lidl responded after shoppers spotted fruit labelled “unfit for consumption.” Amazon has also introduced returnless refunds in Europe, while Temu faces tougher EU product-safety checks after a €200 million fine. Retail Rules: Germany’s packaging regulations carry fines of up to €200,000 for violations, raising the stakes for companies selling consumer goods.
