Why we’re calling on Nora Aufreiter

She has the power – and the responsibility – to ensure Kroger follows through on its promise to end cages.
But her influence doesn’t stop at Kroger.
She also sits on the boards of major international companies with a presence in the UK, including Mytheresa and Scotiabank.That gives us a critical opportunity to apply pressure.
TELL NORA AUFREITER SHE CAN FIX THIS
Nora Aufreiter sits on Kroger’s board as millions of hens remain confined in cages so small they cannot spread their wings. Kroger previously promised to end this practice, but that commitment remains unfulfilled. With her experience in corporate governance, she has a responsibility to help deliver change.

Defend hens and chicks
Each chicken has less than the space of a single sheet of A4 paper to live in on a typical UK egg farm. You can save chickens from a life of misery by replacing eggs in your meals with plant-based alternatives.
