Abstract

The 2015 Business Benchmark on Farm Animal Welfare Report assesses how 80 of the world’s largest food companies in the food retailer and wholesaler, restaurant and bar, and food producer and manufacturer sectors are managing farm animal welfare. The report concludes that farm animal welfare is rising up the business agenda with an increasing number of companies having established policies and set objectives and targets. Despite this progress, farm animal welfare continues to receive much less attention than other corporate responsibility issues, with one third of the companies covered by the benchmark yet to even establish a policy on farm animal welfare.
