"This bakery-cafe brand is owned via a holding company tied to the Reimann family, whose historical records show that Albert Reimann Sr. and Albert Reimann Jr. benefited from forced labor in World War II and donated to the SS. The family had been investigating its past alongside media reporting; in response to the revelations the current generation plans to give about $11 million to charity. Company representatives have conceded the business profited from forced labor and condemned those past actions." - Tim Forster
