OK,enough of the warm fuzzy stuff. Time to get militant - and use Web 2.0.
Grace Mugabe sells milk off her dairy farms to Nestle (note - plural). How did she get them - ask the farmers who were dispossessed. Nestle admits they buy from her farms, contravening EU sanctions. Their excuse - their headquarters are in Switzerland, and they have "broken no laws". They "just buy on the open market".
My family will not be buying any Nestle brands for the next 3 months. I will have to find new chocolates (or go without)(Aero)and find other coffee (Nescafe) and cat food (Friskies).
I will do without if necessary. I know they don't care. I am sure my actions alone will not impact their profits. But I do care about the morality of business.
Perhaps they will think more morally the next time they "buy in the open market".
