NYC bodega owners rejected boycott of Goya products

NYC bodega owners under the main organization nationwide, The United Bodegas of America gathered for a press meet inviting the public and media after called to boycott Goya. Their message was simple, "You do not boycott family".
The bodegas will keep on selling Goya products as its their lifeline to the community they serve and will not take orders from anyone despite well known names called for boycott.

This is their message,
"Goya Foods employs over 5,000 people in the Tristate area, these are 5000 of our Family members that Goya is supporting. Goya is not just a brand they're an Institutional Family member. We will never turn our backs on those that have been there for all Latin America. Lets raise and commend Goya Foods for all the good they have done, lets NOT allow anyone to tell us what we can or can't buy, Si Es Goya Tiene Que Ser Bueno. Lets leave it at that", said Fernando Mateo, spokesman for UBA.
