Strauss Group forced to sell Sabra Dipping Company due to dipping sales! Image
The Strauss Group, a complicit Israeli multinational food and beverage corporation, has been forced due to a very effective boycott, to sell off its shares in the US-based company, Sabra, which mass produces the culturally-appropriated popular Arab dip, hummus, and other dips. Image
Since 2008, Sabra has been co-owned by PepsiCo and Strauss. Sabra sales in the US suffered a massive blow following intensified boycotts in 2023 and 2024 in light of its parent company’s complicity in supporting Israel’s genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians. Image
