Chick-fil-A to phase out antibiotic-free chicken sourcing
Chick-fil-A’s Transition: A Shift in Chicken Sourcing
Fast food chain Chick-fil-A will no longer offer antibiotic-free chicken, as revealed on their website update.
Since 2019, all Chick-fil-A restaurants have proudly served antibiotic-free chicken meat. However, a transition is on the horizon this spring, marking a shift in sourcing practices. Despite this change, the franchise remains committed to upholding the principle of No Antibiotics Important To Human Medicine.
Maintaining Consumer Health and Wellbeing
- The absence of antibiotics commonly used in human medicine is vital to preventing antibiotic resistance in consumers.
- Chick-fil-A ensures antibiotics are only administered to chickens when necessary for treating illness.
On their website, Chick-fil-A emphasizes their dedication to animal welfare through initiatives like an Animal Wellbeing Council, comprising external experts who advise on policies and practices. This commitment continues the brand’s trajectory of ethical sourcing.
This move mirrors Tyson Foods’ recent transition from No Antibiotics Ever to No Antibiotics Important To Human Medicine.
Quality and Transparency
- Chick-fil-A’s chicken sourcing is firmly rooted in the United States, without added fillers, artificial preservatives, or hormones.
- The chain operates over 3,000 locations across the U.S. and plans to further expand into Europe and Asia by 2023.
As Chick-fil-A adapts its sourcing practices, it remains steadfast in prioritizing both the health of its consumers and the welfare of the animals it sources from.
