Italian supermarket chain says it has stopped selling Israeli products

[IsraelTimes] An Italian supermarket chain says it has stopped selling Israeli products in solidarity with Palestinians affected by war and hunger in the Gaza Strip.

The decision will mean that Coop Alleanza 3.0 will remove Israeli peanuts, tahini sauce, and SodaStream carbonated water makers from its shelves, a statement says.

…all of which can no doubt be ordered from Amazon.it without any trouble at all, but now the co-op won’t collect the profit…

In an additional sign of support for people in Gaza, where Israel is fighting the Hamas terror group in a war sparked by its October 7, 2023, attack, supermarkets have also started selling the pro-Palestinian Gaza Cola fizzy drink, the statement adds.

Coke and Pepsi products can be bought everywhere. And Europeans are not one-stop shoppers, but make the rounds to all the specialty shops. The suppliers are likely not seeing any change in their overall sales, just in how much product is delivered where.

Coop Alleanza 3.0 is the largest cooperative in the Coop Italia network, comprising almost 350 stores in eight Italian regions from Friuli-Venezia Giulia in the north to Puglia in the south.

The cooperative “cannot remain indifferent to the ongoing violence in the Gaza Strip and [is] united in calling for the immediate cessation of military operations,” it says.

Coop supermarket chains in Florence and the central regions of Tuscany, Lazio and Umbria are also no longer stocking Israeli products, spokespeople say, insisting, however, that this did not amount to a formal boycott of Israeli products.

#1 Boycotting Israel is illegal in America.
There used to be an Android app that you could scan products with to see if they were made in Israel. Google removed it from the Play store after pressure from Israel.

Apple never allowed it to be distributed in the first place.
No platform for antisemitism.
