Evermore Pet Food, a leading provider of high-quality pet nutrition, has proudly achieved Better Chicken Commitment compliance, solidifying its dedication to ethical and sustainable sourcing practices.

The Better Chicken Commitment (BCC) is a set of welfare-driven criteria established to improve the lives of chickens raised for meat. This commitment focuses on key areas such as providing more space, enriching environments, and using slower-growing chicken breeds to enhance their overall well-being.

Evermore Pet Food's dedication to higher-welfare sourcing

Evermore Pet Food's journey toward BCC compliance is detailed in its sourcing story. The story provides transparency into Evermore's sourcing practices, highlighting their dedication to responsible and humane chicken sourcing. Evermore first officially committed to the BCC in 2022, and achieved 100% compliance in just over a year.

Compassion in World Farming supports the Better Chicken Commitment

Compassion in World Farming, a global organization advocating for the welfare of farmed animals, recognizes and supports companies that adhere to the Better Chicken Commitment. Evermore's compliance underscores its commitment to promoting higher welfare standards throughout the pet food industry.

Anna Sostarecz, U.S. Food Business Manager for Compassion in World Farming, says: “Evermore pet food is leading the space for farm animal welfare, as demonstrated by the rapid implementation of the company’s commitments. We are excited to continue to support and collaborate with Evermore on animal welfare and sustainability initiatives.”
