According to The Humane League, Whole Foods Market will begin higher animal welfare standards for chickens in its supply chain. This makes Whole Foods the first major US retailer to sign on to all parts of the Better Chicken Commitment.

Whole Foods will phase out live-shackle slaughter in its chicken suppliers, with full removal for all 487 locations by 2026. Live-shackle slaughter is ubiquitous in chicken factory farms. In this process, a chicken is shackled, yanked upside down, and then undergoes an electrical bath to knock her unconscious before her throat is slit and she’s dumped into boiling water.
