Opposition to the Milco takeover
The proposed takeover by Milco, led by Israel's Central Bottling Company, was opposed by BDS South Africa, Palestinian solidarity organizations and several South African trade unions. Critics raised allegations concerning the consortium's activities in Israeli settlements, possible job losses, alleged anti-competitive conduct and human-rights issues. The objections formed part of public and labor opposition to the transaction rather than a finding that Clover itself had committed wrongdoing.
