Linens

Linens is a brand operating under the Turkey-based industrial conglomerate Zorlu Holding (controlled by Ahmet Nazif Zorlu), active in electronics, home appliances, textiles, energy, and defense. The boycott of Linens stems directly from the strategic partnerships of its parent company, Zorlu Holding, including supplying electricity to the israeli military (IDF) and manufacturing critical avionics for F-35 fighter jets.

Core Boycott Reasons:

• Supplying Electricity to the israeli Military (IDF): Through its 25% stake in israel's Dorad Energy power plant, Zorlu Enerji supplied electricity directly to the israeli Ministry of Defense and israel Defense Forces (IDF) military bases for years under long-term state contracts.
• AYESAŞ & Avionics for F-35 Fighter Jets: Zorlu Group holds a 60% controlling stake in defense manufacturer AYESAŞ (a joint venture with L3Harris), which is the sole global supplier of critical missile remote interface units and panoramic cockpit display circuit boards for the F-35 Lightning II fighter jets deployed by the israeli Air Force.
• Direct Corporate Entities in israel: Zorlu maintained active commercial entities in israel, including ZES israel Ltd. and Zador israel Ltd., with senior executives chairing the DEİK Turkey-israel Business Council to facilitate bilateral corporate trade.
• Consolidated Group Revenues: Commercial revenue and profits generated by Linens flow directly into Zorlu Holding's corporate financial accounts, bolstering the conglomerate's capital deployed across its energy, industrial, and defense ventures.

Consequently, Linens is subject to boycott due to its direct corporate integration within Zorlu Holding. For full documentation and source links, please review the primary Zorlu Holding boycott page.
