Companies with Russian links to boycott

I haven't seen another thread on this.

Can we compile a list of companies to boycott who are refusing to withdraw business from Russia?

I'll take a start with Coca-Cola, and Costa Coffee, which is owned by Coke.

Cocomarine I agree. I think the supply chains are incredibly complex but if you want to boycott products containing anything from Russia you need to find out what they are from the producers (and even then I think it would be tricky because of all the intermediaries involved) not boycott companies who sell their stuff to people in Russia. I thought the idea was to deprive countries of income which is why I think sanctions are more effective. I have no idea where the petrol I buy comes from whereas if the UK government banned imports of Russian oil I wouldn't need to find out.

Shell has just done a deal with Russia to buy cheap oil, so avoiding filling your car up at Shell may be a good idea if you want to take action.
