In September 2020, Clicks faced criticism after a TRESemmé advertisement posted on its website, showing dry and damaged black hair and fine white hair, was described as racist.[4]
Clicks stores were targeted and a number damaged by Economic Freedom Fighters protesters, while Minister of Small Business Development Khumbudzo Ntshavheni called for all TRESemmé products to be removed from its shelves.
Clicks issued an apology, temporarily closed a number of its stores, suspended staff responsible for approving the advert, pulled all TRESemmé products, and pledged to fill the gap with locally sourced hair care brands.[5][6]
United Pharmaceutical Distributors (UPD) - pharmaceutical wholesaler serving hospitals, clinics, doctors' surgeries and retail health product stores
