Starbucks has announced plans to close 400 stores across North America — a move analysts link to plummeting sales and the ongoing global boycott over the company’s stance on the Gaza genocide.
Since the boycott began, Starbucks has faced sharp revenue drops in multiple regions, including the Middle East, North Africa, and even the U.S., where many stores have reported steep declines in foot traffic.
The backlash began after the company sued its own workers’ union for expressing solidarity with Palestine — a move that sparked a wave of public outrage and protests worldwide.
Now, as Starbucks shutters hundreds of stores, the message from consumers is clear:
People are done funding companies that profit off silence in the face of genocide.
