This site intends to send mobile browsers to a mobile site, but doesn't know that Firefox OS devices are smartphones. Hence the browser on Firefox OS phones get desktop content instead of mobile.

The site adapts to mobile layout with the following JavaScript:

    <script>
        if(/Android|webOS|iPhone|iPod|IEMobile|BlackBerry/i.test(navigator.userAgent)) {
            // tablets, mobiles except iPad
            document.write('<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, user-scalable=no"><link rel="stylesheet" href="/assets/frontend/css/frontpage/mobile.css" />');
        }
    </script>

This should be fixed to take Firefox OS into account, for example by matching the string "Mobi" or "Mobile" separately in the regular expression.
