Five Guys Cruelty

Neglected. Confined. Suffering. Five Guys is failing. Hens in Five Guys' supply chain are forced to live in filthy cages with no room to move or even spread their wings.

It’s time for Five Guys to stop profiting from needless animal cruelty.

Foot and claw damage are more frequent in cages than in other systems, with lesions, fissures, and twisted or broken claws resulting from stepping on sharp wiring every day.

Progress on the Issue

Nearly every major food company has already committed to going cage-free, including these:

The best way for individual consumers to help end this cruelty is to leave animals off their plates.
