Focus Brands/Cinnabon: Stop Supporting Animal Abuse!

The Issue

Focus Brands, parent company to Cinnabon, Jamba, and Auntie Anne’s, is responsible for the cruel and archaic confinement of millions of egg-laying hens in tiny, filthy cages. 

These cages are so small and packed with birds that the hens can’t move or spread their wings. Often, their body parts are caught in the caging, resulting in fractured or broken bones, deformities, and severe feather loss. Some hens, exhausted or unable to move, are trampled to death by their cage mates. Those that don’t die from the abuse spend their miserable lives trapped with dead birds at their feet. 

Thousands of companies around the world are ditching cages. Global commitments to go cage-free are being made by some of the largest companies in the world, including Inspire Brands, Yum! Brands, RBI, Burger King, Tim Hortons, Pret a Manger, Panera Bread,  Krispy Kreme, Unilever, Nestle, Aldi, InterContinental Hotels, Sodexo, Marriott, Wyndham, Compass Group, Shake Shack, Famous Brands, Costa Coffee, and Barilla. Even low-end fast food and pet food companies are moving away from this horrible practice. 

Focus Brands claims to be “committed to the wellbeing and humane treatment of all animals”, yet its eggs come from unfathomably cruel, filthy,  and outdated battery cages. Please sign this petition asking Focus Brands to release a global cage-free policy.
