Consumer Boycotts

A consumer boycott is a collective action where customers refuse to purchase goods or services from a company to express disapproval of its practices, policies, or behaviors. This can stem from various issues, such as unethical business practices, environmental concerns, or social justice matters. By withholding their money, consumers aim to pressure the company to change its ways or take a stand on specific issues. Boycotts can lead to significant economic impacts and often generate public awareness, influencing both corporate policies and consumer behavior in broader society.
