Dear Supporter,

An Aldi VP of Corporate Buying has been quoted as saying, “We want to bring products to the stores that customers want.” Unfortunately, this statement doesn't seem to apply to crate free pork!

If you care about animal welfare and want to buy crate free pork at Aldi, make sure Aldi knows about it!  Ask Aldi to finally make a real commitment and require its pork supplies to end the use of gestation crates by a specified date.

Please leave a polite comment on Aldi's social media.  You can use what we wrote below, or write your own.

• Post on Aldi’s Facebook page or comment on their Instagram. Sample comment: I believe that grocery chains have a responsibility to ensure the humane treatment of the animals they profit from. When will Aldi finally take a real stand and require its suppliers to end the use of gestation crates within a specific timeframe? I want to support businesses that take a strong stand against the extreme confinement of animals raised for food. #CrateFreeAldi. (Note: If posting a comment on FB during regular business hours, your post will most likely be deleted within a few minutes)
• Post on Twitter: As an @AldiUSA shopper, I want to be able to buy crate free pork at Aldi. Why is is taking so long for Aldi to take a real stand and commit to ending the use of gestation crates in its supply chain? Sign the petition -  https://change.org/cratefreealdi #CrateFreeAldi

Thank for your continued support for the animals that feed us,

Crate Free Illinois
