BROILER CHICKENS

Effective 2017, we are requiring our suppliers to take the following actions for 100% of our chicken supply by 2024, or sooner if possible:

  • Meet the Global Animal Partnership (GAP) maximum stocking density standard of <6 pounds per square feet.

  • Provide chickens with enriched environments including natural light, litter, hay bales and perches that meet GAP standards.

  • Use GAP approved genetic strains for slower-growing chickens.

  • Render chickens unconscious prior to shackling using Controlled or Low Atmospheric Stunning that is widely hailed as humane.

  • Demonstrate compliance with the above standards via a third-party auditing system.
