Why is Ray-ban Boycotted?
🚨 Reasons for Boycotting Ray-ban (EssilorLuxottica)
Ray-ban is a flagship eyewear brand owned by global eyewear monopoly EssilorLuxottica, the world's most popular sunglasses and optical frames brand. EssilorLuxottica acquired 100% full ownership of major israeli optical lens manufacturer Shamir Optical Industry (located in Kibbutz Shamir, israel). Due to this direct manufacturing and corporate presence in israel, Ray-ban is boycotted.
Key Boycott Drivers:
- Full Ownership of israeli Shamir Optical: EssilorLuxottica completed the total acquisition of Kibbutz Shamir-based Shamir Optical, operating production and advanced optical laboratories directly inside israel.
- Capital Inflow to israeli Industry: Directly contributing corporate taxes and high-tech optical capacity to the israeli economy.
