Fórum Animal are pleased to announce that Alfa Piscicultura, a Brazilian tilapia producer, has committed to maintain animal welfare standards. This includes daily water quality assessments and keeping predators away from tanks. Additionally, Pizza Prime, the largest pizza franchise in Brazil, published its crate-free commitment to only buy pork from suppliers that work with sows group housing throughout gestation. Pizza Prime has committed to making this transition by 2026.

You can find both commitments in Portuguese by accessing:

In terms of impact, we estimate that Alfa Piscicultura's commitment will guarantee the benefit of over 1.400.000 tilapias per year! On the other hand, Pizza Prime's crate-free commitment should benefit over 259 pigs per year. Pizza Prime should also contribute to impact thousands of consumers with its new animal welfare policy that will be applied to the company's 70 stores across the country.

We conducted 1 year of friendly negotiation with the companies.

Our next steps will be to encourage both companies to share their success story in animal welfare and to Pizza Prime report its progress.

For the animals.

Cities across Europe are stepping up for climate, health, and animal protection. Alcorcón, El Masnou, and Parla in Spain, Grenoble in France, and Campolide in Portugal have recently endorsed the call for a global Plant Based Treaty to cut food emissions in line with the Paris Agreement. Their commitments include: * Piloting plant-based meals in public dining halls and city facilities, and banning land use changes for animal agriculture (Alcorcón) * Requiring at least 50% plant-based catering at municipal events (El Masnou) * Prioritizing plant-based food in public procurement and developing a local sustainable food strategy, including plant-based menus in school cafeterias, day centres and residencies (Parla) * Increasing plant-based options in canteens and at events, and promoting initiatives such as Veganuary (Grenoble) * Organizing community-based plant-based cooking workshops and running educational programs in schools to raise awareness of food system impacts and encourage dietary shifts (Campolide)   To date, 45 cities globally have endorsed the Plant Based Treaty, and with your support, our teams are transforming food policy one city at a time as we build momentum to secure our first country endorsement.
