Mobilizations to drive the boycott of Carrefour for its connection with Palestinian occupation are strengthened
- The BDS has prompted several protests to denounce the links between the company and Israel. The movement has pointed out that supermarket chain agreements with Israel violate UN resolutions.
Criticism of Carrefour has been intensified by its relationship with Israel, according to El Salto. In the face of the massacre in Gaza, several movements denounce the supermarket chain agreements with Israel. For example, the company has sent food bags to the Israeli Armed Forces.
In any case, the complaint focuses on a 2022 agreement signed by the CEO of Carrefour Bompard with the Electra Group franchise of Israel. According to the BDS movement, the agreement violates international resolutions. Electra Group is in the UN database of companies that deploy illegal colonies in Palestine.
Declarations and actions
In Euskal Herria, among other things, demonstrations have been held in supermarkets in Pamplona and Bilbao, calling the boycott. Similar initiatives have taken place in Galicia or Spain. In the French state, the country of origin of Carrefour, information points were set up in October in front of the chain supermarkets in cities such as Montpellier or Lyon. In November, Podemos Secretary General Ione Belarra called the “boycott” against Carrefour and other companies collaborating with the State of Israel. On social networks like X, many users have linked Carrefour to colonization activities.
