We need your help to encourage Associated British Food (ABF), a global food manufacturer, to live up to its promise of a cage-free future for hens in its supply chain.

Back in 2022, ABF made a commitment to transition to cage-free sourcing for their entire global portfolio. But since then,  ABF has only been transparent and forthcoming about some of its eggs. ABF has failed to report global progress for all brands and regions where they operate, even going as far as rescinding its 100% cage-free policy in Brazil.

Consumers are left wondering: What’s going on with ABF’s global cage-free egg policy? What are they hiding?

Cages are a nightmare for hens and are undeniably cruel. 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 confined cage mates. Hens in these cages are forced to live, breathe, and lay eggs for human consumption while trapped amongst feces and rotting bodies. That’s not life, it’s torture. 

But it doesn’t have to be this way. We’re asking ABF to be transparent and accountable by reporting comprehensive cage-free progress for all brands and regions where they operate and by reinstating its 100% cage-free commitment in Brazil - no more waiting, no more silence, and no more half truths. 

Join us in asking ABF to honor its commitment and take action by signing this petition. Together, we can make a difference for hens worldwide.
