After years of negotiations with Animal Equality, Mercy For Animals, and Fórum Animal, Nissin Foods do Brasil publicly announced the fulfillment of their cage-free commitment in the country. Nissin is one of the world leaders in the production of instant foods and is renowned for its noodle portfolio in Brazil. The company has operations in various countries, with subsidiaries in regions such as Latin America, Asia, and the United States.

Timeline: Animal Equality has been in contact since that policy was published with our support. In 2021, they reached out asking for help to speed up the implementation and get a cage-free certification. MFA started the accountability communications in 2018, followed by efforts from their corporate campaigns team in 2023. Fórum Animal has been in contact since 2019 and every year since for their annual accountability report, Egglab, and has been offering implementation support since 2022. Since then, AE, MFA, and Fórum have consistently followed up with Nissin Foods do Brasil to monitor their progress.

Hello FAST members   Two months ago we submitted to the Servicio Nacional de Sanidad Agraria  (Senasa), an agency attached to the  Ministerio de Desarrollo Agrario y Riego  (Midagri), a regulatory proposal aimed at incorporating specific provisions of Animal welfare in the land transport of farm animals. Currently, national legislation only addresses health and hygiene requirements, without establishing criteria to guarantee minimum welfare conditions during transport. This regulatory gap has negative consequences, as it increases animal suffering and the incidence of injuries and mortality, particularly in situations of stress or accidents during transport. Our proposal seeks to align Peruvian regulations with the regional and international standardsIn this sense, we highlight the positive openness of Midagri and Senasa to evaluate the initiative and the relevance of the interest expressed by the Comunidad Andina, which has been promoting regulatory harmonization in this area among member countries.  In this regard, we have already held a meeting with the group of lawyers from both institutions, as well as with the Andean Community, advancing discussions toward the creation of a joint guide to animal welfare in the Peruvian land transportation system. We trust that the incorporation of animal welfare criteria in transport will represent a significant advance in both animal protection and welfare in the country. Great day, Iselda Livoni Arba Peru
