Reason for Boycott
Namet is a Turkey-based red meat and deli products manufacturer. According to Namet’s own corporate history, the company became one of Burger King’s global suppliers in 2010 and one of McDonald’s global suppliers in 2016. McDonald’s Türkiye publicly lists Namet as its red meat supplier and states that the beef used in products such as Big Mac, Hamburger, Cheeseburger and Quarter Pounder is produced by Namet from 100% beef. McDonald’s has been subject to BDS-backed boycott campaigns after its Israeli franchise provided free meals to Israeli military personnel. Therefore, Namet’s critical red meat supply relationship with McDonald’s is considered commercial support for the operations of a boycotted brand. Namet remains majority-controlled by the Kayar family, while Investcorp holds a minority stake. Based on these findings, Namet should be classified under the “Strict Boycott” category.
