Hi everyone, Fórum Animal is pleased to announce that Piscicultura Água Pura/Recanto Sol Nascente has publicly committed to improving the welfare of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)! The company has reinforced its commitment in 2025 to continue implementing the following practices: ·        Daily assessment of water quality ·        Removal of predators from tanks ·        Transporting animals only in good quality water The company primarily sells live animals. However, when slaughter is necessary, the public commitment also ensures that animals will be slaughtered with adequate prior stunning methods such as electric stunning or percussive shock. Fórum Animal engaged in friendly negotiations with the company in April 2025 based on our "Guidelines for Commitment to Animal Welfare in Fish Farming". We estimate that this commitment will benefit 300,000 tilapia annually in Brazil! Check out the commitment in Portuguese [here]. We will continue negotiating fish welfare commitments with other companies to expand the positive impact on millions of lives. For the animals!

Hi FAST! The ongoing egg crisis continues to challenge the foodservice industry with shortages and soaring prices—but smart, plant-based substitutions offer operators easy, sustainable solutions to supply chain volatility. Last month, Greener by Default hosted a webinar with three culinary leaders to share their tips, tricks, and practical takeaways for foodservice professionals looking to looking to make their menus more resilient and cost-effective through subtle, plant-based swaps, without compromising on taste or diner experience.  The insights and experiences shared by our three expert chefs were so incredibly helpful and action-oriented, we've distilled them down into three key strategies and published them on our blog, and created a highlight reel so as many foodservice professionals as possible can access the knowledge that was shared during the session.  Please feel free to read, watch, and share these links with anyone you think could benefit from this discussion around navigating the egg crisis: Blog post: https://www.greenerbydefault.com/blog/navigating-egg-crisis-recap  Highlight reel:

Hello everyone! We’re pleased to announce our first cage-free commitment from a supermarket: Franco Supermercado, a retailer with four stores in Arequipa and one in Lima, has committed to selling only 100% cage-free eggs by the end of 2026. Commitment link: You can see the publication of the commitment in this LINK. Scale: National (Perú) Timeline:  Compromiso Verde first established contact during a visit to Arequipa in April 2023. We followed up during a second trip in September 2024, where we arranged an in-person meeting. After several months without a response, we successfully reengaged the company by sending a corporate gift for Friendship Day. This gesture led to two additional face-to-face meetings in February 2025, during which we also explored how Compromiso Verde could support them in developing a cage-free egg farm through our PROBA certification program for local producers. ARBA began conversations with Franco Supermercado in November 2024 through emails, WhatsApp messages, and phone calls. Who: Compromiso Verde and ARBA Unsuccessful Tactics: None. Successful Tactics: In-person meetings at the company’s offices in Lima and Arequipa, delivered a corporate gift, and offered support for cage-free egg production through the PROBA program. Scalability: This commitment is significant as it comes from a supermarket chain with locations in Peru's two largest cities. Follow Up: We will stay in touch to request reports and validate compliance with the commitment.  Thank you!
