Animal welfare
The animal welfare icon makes it easier for you to choose those products and services with ease where considerable effort has been made to give animals a better quality of life. In addition, we are keeping our finger on the pulse and looking at how we can systematically continue to improve conditions.
Initiatives regarding animal welfare
Together with our (organic) pig farmers, we make efforts to improve animal welfare. And that’s definitely a win-win.
Our stores only sell fresh meat and meat preparations from animals that have been stunned before slaughter. Our own and independent checks closely monitor this.
Discover how we are aiming for better welfare for standard broiler chickens with 'home-grown chicken'.
Colruyt Group is committed to the welfare of meat rabbits. We choose rabbits from animal-friendly park systems in Belgium.
Through specifications, inspections and monitoring, we carefully follow up on the use of antibiotics in animals reared for our private label meat.
We ban cage eggs, and introduce additional production standards, white eggs and eggs from cockerel-friendly hatcheries, to make our assortment more sustainable.
