COOP supermarket chain to boycott Israel
( Dagsavisen)
The cooperative supermarket chain, Coop Norge, is to boycott Israeli products. Coop accounts for one quarter of supermarket purchases in Norway. "We are incensed by what Israel is doing. In our opinion Israel’s actions in the Mid-East conflict should have consequences for our purchasing policy," said Bernt Aas, chief executive of Coop Norge, adding that the Norwegian Coop will approach its Swedish and Danish partners with a view to establishing a Nordic boycott of Israeli products.
