Campaign Victory: Andronico's ends its sale of battery cage eggs!

 

Andronico's Market, a 10-store grocery chain based in the San

Francisco Bay Area, will no longer sell eggs from chickens

confined to tiny battery cages. Bill Andronico, president of the

company, told East Bay Animal Advocates: " We have plans to be 100

percent cage-free on October 1, 2006. We take all issues around

this matter very seriously, from the welfare of our employees to

the welfare of the hens. "

 

Andronico's Market joins Whole Foods Markets, Wild Oats Natural

Marketplace and other retailers around the country that refuse

to carry eggs from caged hens. Christine Morrissey, president

of East Bay Animal Advocates, stated, " Andronico's Market is

taking a positive step by refusing to carry eggs from battery

caged hens, and other grocers across the Bay Area should follow

its lead. "

 

Thank Andronico's for taking a bold stand against animal cruelty:
