MISSISSAUGA, Ont. — Second Cup Ltd. has announced plans to source 100-per-cent cage-free eggs across its entire supply chain. The chain, which boasts 310 cafés across the country, strives to reach this goal by 2020.
With this announcement, Second Cup joins the recent wave of restaurant chains that have committed to using cage-free eggs in response to changing customer expectations.
“With Second Cup’s announcement, it’s never been clearer that the days are numbered for companies that sell eggs from hens packed into cages so small the birds can’t walk or even fully spread their wings,” says Krista Hiddema, managing director of Mercy For Animals in Canada.
