In parts of the Muslim world, calls were trending on social media over the weekend for consumers to boycott French goods in protest at France displaying caricatures of the Prophet Mohammad which Muslims view as blasphemous.

Here are some of the French firms and sectors with exposure to Muslim-majority countries. There is no indication that any of them have so far been affected, unless otherwise stated.France is a major global exporter of grain, and some of its biggest markets are in Muslim-majority countries. Algeria is France’s tenth largest export market for agricultural products, according to French farm ministry data, with exports worth around 1.4 billion euros in 2019.

I wish French people the best. I wish this boycott will cause all those extremist muslims to go back where they´re comming from, specially because they don´t feel well where they´re living now, so please, leave France. Thanks.

France means freedom. Islamic countries are chained.

Vive la France 🇫🇷

The French deserve this

Do not trade with terörist france

I buy all those things muslins don't want. They can go back to their own countries.

Kesinle karşılık bulucak. Müslümanlar olarak en küçük tepkimiz bu daha büyüğünü ilerleyen yıllarda daha önce dayandigimiz Viyana kapılarını kırınca. Görür o öküz makron.

Support the secular French state under assult by aggressive Islamist ideology. Vive la France

Maybe this is a watershed moment for the French. An opportunity to halt the growing threat of the Islamisation of their nation, perhaps?

I will not buy anymore French product until they show respect to Muslim beliefs or any other beliefs.. what is going on in France is pure hatred and ignorance, just sad...

This is where Racists & Zionists cause their societies a whole lots of trouble for nothing Their insults for Prophet Mohammed, causes Muslims to Pay Attention. So one Muslim reacts with a heinous Crime, while the majority Boycotts related products WHAT WAS IT ALL ABOUT THEN?

They seek to put out the light of Allâh with (the breath of) their mouths, but Allâh disdains every other thing save that He will perfect His light; however much the disbelievers may consider (it) hard.

Oh please. Arabs to boycott French grain exports, Carrefour and Luis Vuitton? The elite will just move to France (if not resident already), while the poor get poorer. Muslimvalues

I love how Europeans called the US racist for being anti-Muslim after 9/11 and other terrorist attacks. Pot, meet kettle.

This is where Racists & Zionists cause their societies a whole lots of trouble for nothing Their hate for Prophet Mohammed, causes Muslims to focus Attention. So one Muslim reacts with heinous Crime, while the majority Boycotts a related products WHAT WAS IT ALL ABOUT THEN?

BAN THE HIJAB FAIRYTALE IN EUROPE NOW!!!🙋

It's true, applies to the Muslims of the world
