About The Cage-Free Certification
Today’s consumers and regulators place increasingly high animal welfare demands on farmers and food manufacturers. After the backlash against battery cage farming of chickens, the well-being of poultry is under particular scrutiny. It is now a major concern for companies involved in raising chickens to make sure that the animals on their farms are well cared for.
QIMA can help you demonstrate your commitment to a high standard of hen care by achieving certification under the Raised Cage Free Certification scheme, developed by QIMA in partnership with PAC (Preparation Audit Consultants).
