The phrase "Banana Republic" is entirely due to Chiquita/United Fruit Company.

(Also, wtf, Banana Republic is now an American fashion brand? Jesus Christ, way to have zero insight)

Once again, really unsure why you're being downvoted for mentioning facts.

Are you perhaps hurting some "invisible hand" idealists feelings? Who knows.
