Animal welfare activists have called for a boycott of the Body Shop after its founder Anita Roddick and fellow shareholders sold out to French cosmetics giant L'Oreal for £652m.
The boycott was called by Naturewatch and backed by Uncaged.
The animal welfare groups oppose L'Oreal's policy on the testing of cosmetics ingredients on animals.
Body Shop made its name championing ethical consumerism and opposing animal testing and went on to make a fortune of £130m for Mrs Roddick and her husband Gordon.
