This Ramadan and beyond, make sure to boycott Israeli dates which are grown on stolen Palestinian land.  

By selling Israeli dates, supermarkets are contributing to Israel’s land theft, military occupation and apartheid.  

Watch and share our video on identifying and boycotting Israeli dates, and sign our petition to supermarkets in Britain to demand that they take all Israeli produce off the shelves.

Israeli dates are grown in illegal Israeli settlements, often in the Jordan Valley area of the occupied West Bank. Palestinians in the Jordan Valley are facing intensifying land grabs and attacks by the Israeli military and settlers. Last month, hundreds of Palestinians were forcibly dispossessed from Ras Ein al-Auja in the Jordan Valley, after facing relentless settler violence.

By stocking dates and other fresh produce from Israeli agricultural exporters like Hadiklaim, Mehadrin and Galilee Export, supermarkets in Britain are supporting this horrific violence.  

When out shopping, make sure to check the label and packaging. If it says “Product of Israel” or contains the name of an Israeli exporter, don’t buy it.

Our Don’t Buy Apartheid campaign, which calls on all individuals and businesses to boycott Israeli produce and Coca-Cola products, is making a difference. Last year, the Co-op became the first British supermarket to refuse to stock all Israeli goods, after an overwhelming vote by Co-op members.  

It’s long past time for all other supermarkets to follow suit. Sign our petition to demand that supermarkets stop stocking Israeli produce.

PSC is proud to partner with and stock dates from Zaytoun, a social enterprise which brings Palestinian produce to the UK. By buying Palestinian dates from Zaytoun, you are supporting Palestinian farmers cultivating their land and facing down Israel’s colonial violence.

Visit our online shop to buy your Palestinian dates today.  

In solidarity,
