Hello everyone!


 

We are very pleased to share that Koi Maki Bar, a Peruvian restaurant in Trujillo city with two locations, has started using cage-free eggs since last week. Koi Maki Bar made the announcement through an Instagram reel showing the cruelty of cage systems and mentioning Open Wing Alliance.

You can see the publication of the commitment in this LINK.


 

Scale: National (Perú)


 

Timeline: First contact in March, weekly follow ups.


 

Who: Compromiso Verde


 

Unsuccessful Tactics: Sending the database of cage-free egg producers that supply Trujillo city didn't work. Unfortunately, the producers either didn't respond or changed prices after negotiation. Because of this, the owner almost gave up on making the commitment.


 

Successful Tactics: Speaking directly with the suppliers to request quotes, validate that the supplier issues invoices, and ensure the supplier sends the eggs directly to the restaurant. This way, I managed to get the restaurant to agree to work with a cage-free supplier.


 

Scalability: Koi Maki Bar is one of the top restaurants in the La Libertad region according to the SUMMUM awards 2023 in Peru. This commitment is important because La Libertad is the third egg-producing region in Peru.


Follow Up: We will stay in touch to request reports and validate compliance with the commitment.


 

Thank you!

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.
