Better Chicken Commitment Roadmap

At WOWorks, we are deeply aware that chickens raised globally can often grow too rapidly, leading to physical health issues. Our dedication to enhancing our standards consistently encompasses our stance on animal welfare. It is our priority to guarantee the well-being and high quality of life of our chickens, ensuring their health without resorting to unwarranted antibiotics.

In 2022, we affirmed our dedication to the Better Chicken Commitment in the United States, and in 2023 we devised our Better Chicken Commitment Roadmap for WOWorks. Our commitment to meeting every criterion of this initiative remains unyielding.
