The Chinese-owned online marketplace Temu has sued its rival Shein, alleging that the fast fashion giant “bullied, intimidated, and even detained” suppliers in China as part of a campaign of “mafia-style intimidation”.
Reigniting an acrimonious legal battle, Temu accused Shein of trying to “illegally interfere” with its business and going so far as to confiscate merchants’ cellphones during meetings to obtain access to confidential information.
