Carrefour Stores in UAE to Sell Cage-Free Eggs

Majid Al Futtaim said it is working towards a “100 percent cage-free shell egg private label assortment across all markets it operates in by 2030 and all national brands by 2032” which means Carrefour stores in the region, including the UAE, will soon sell only cage-free eggs.

Alternative and more sustainable housing systems, such as cage-free, outdoor access systems, free-range systems and organic will be promoted.

Hani Weiss, chief executive officer, Majid Al Futtaim Retail, said: “As a result of today’s announcement, our customers can expect the highest animal health and welfare standards from Carrefour throughout the region. We are dedicated to working responsibly in this area and will continue to make progress by supporting best practices across our supply chains.”

Majid Al Futtaim is working to ensure that 100% of its private label products come from non-genetically modified animals by the end of 2023.

The policy also stipulates multiple important points relating to the general health and wellbeing of animals.
