Subway had previously failed to provide any progress updates on its decade-old commitment to transition its US egg supply to 100% cage-free eggs by 2025. After 6 months of relentless pressure on Subway's US executives and franchisees, The Humane League has achieved a win for hens in North America!! 

On September 11, 2025, Subway amended its Sustainability Page to read:

All Subway restaurants in the U.S. are set to source 100% cage-free eggs by November 1, 2025, ahead of our commitment deadline. In Canada, 75% of Subway restaurants proudly serve cage-free eggs, with full transition expected by year-end. This multi-year transition fulfills our promise to source 100% cage-free eggs for the more than 22,000 restaurants across North America.

Subway is the largest restaurant chain in North America, making it an impactful industry influencer, with an estimated 340,000 egg-laying hens in its US supply chain. Thank you to everyone who took action to hold Subway accountable!!
