PETA's Benetton world protest tour arrives in Athens

PETA U.S. declared an international boycott of Australian wool in October 2004 and has already won the positive response of prestigious US retailers Abercrombie & Fitch, J.Crew, Timberland, Limited Brands, and UK-based mega-chains New Look and George, but Benetton refuses to follow their lead.

“The 'united colours' of Benetton are turning blood red”, says PETA Europe Campaign Coordinator Jodi Ruckley. “If Benetton doesn't want to have the blood of millions of lambs and their mothers on its hands, it should refuse to sell clothes made from Australian wool.”

The tour includes protests in Europe, Asia, North America and South America. For more information and to view a video of mulesing and live export, please visit UnitedCrueltyOfBenetton.com.
