[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My family are new consumers of Goya products.   Went to the local grocery store a few days ago -  they were nearly sold out.  And, we live in a rural area with few Hispanics.  
I bought some rice and beans  and it was delicious.  Will continue to buy Goya.

Saw this yesterday.....

Go back to page 15 and read my post from 12:34.

While there is short-term buying of Goya products and they are selling off the shelves, traditionally people that boycott products and companies are long-term repeat buyers who switch to other brands.  The people who are buying to object to boycotts are typically short-term buyers who are trying to counter a boycott.  They will buy products now, but they are not typically repeat customers of such products and so after a month, two or three, they will stop their protest buying.  So, boycotts often have no effect short term, but will have lasting effects after the current quarter or two goes by when the objectors stop buying but the boycotters do not return to the products.

LOL, those signs have been there since March, as they are for rices, pastas and other shelf-stable items that got cleaned out. Not a result of the recent topic.[/quote]

Just at our local Safeway. The Goya section was fully stocked. Not a single space open on the shelves. Also much mire expensive vs other options. Now all around the Goya products, same products from different companies showed signs people were buying them. [/quote]

I was just at our local Giant, where the Goya section was picked over.  I guess my anecdote cancels out yours?[/quote]
