With each cage the size of a filing cabinet drawer, packed with multiple birds, battery cage farms are hell on earth for the innocent hens that lay eggs for Aramark. This outdated agricultural practice is so cruel that it is already illegal in several states in the US and the entire European Union.

Aramark is one of the largest hospitality companies in the world, providing food service for hundreds of universities, hospitals, sports arenas, prisons and more around the country. Unlike its competitors, Sodexo and Delaware North Companies, Aramark remains committed to sourcing eggs from battery cage egg farms—cruel factory farms where hens are trapped in cages barely larger than their bodies.

Earlier this month, after a campaign and Change.org petition from The Humane League, Aramark's competitor, Sodexo, made a commitment to boycott cruel battery cage egg farms. Last year, The Humane League worked with foodservice competitor Delaware North Companies to make the same commitment. Unlike its competitors, Aramark continues to support the cruelest egg farms imaginable.

Please, sign our petition and let Aramark know that people like you do not want to be supporting this kind of extreme animal cruelty with their dining dollars. It's time for Aramark to do the right thing and join its competitors in the 21st century by pledging to end its support of farms that still use outdated battery cage systems and putting a firm timeline in place to make this happen.
