Why should I choose Food Alliance certification for poultry and/or eggs?
Food Alliance offers the only third-party certification for poultry and eggs that goes beyond animal welfare to address a comprehensive range of issues, including: animal feed, use of hormone and antibiotic treatments, labor conditions, and environmental concerns. Wilcox Family Farms is one of the first companies to offer Food Alliance Certified poultry products. Andrew Wilcox, Director of Operations at Wilcox Farms, explains why they decided to become Food Alliance Certified: “My family’s company has a long history of working to protect the environment and benefit our community. Sustainability is a critical component of our business model. We look at certification as a way to be more transparent with our customers about how their food is produced. Food Alliance’s certification program is unique because they cover labor, animal welfare, and environmental issues. No other certification does all that. It really fits our values.
