EBAA Hatches New Chicken Campaign
East Bay Animal Advocates

Lunardi's Supermarket, a high-end grocery chain in the San
Francisco Bay Area, proclaims it purported commitment to
excellence: "We can explain our prices, but we don't ever want to
have to justify our quality."
Although the company offers an array of free-range and cage-free
egg products, Lunardi's shockingly still sells eggs from chickens
confined in battery cages. Moreover, Lunardi's is the lead
competitor of Andronico's Market, which stopped selling battery
cage eggs this month.
Recently, East Bay Animal Advocates documented conditions at
Lunardi's battery-cage egg supplier. The undercover footage shows
intensive confinement of chickens in tiny cages. Citing concerns
over animal welfare, East Bay Animal Advocates has contacted
Lunardi’s five times this fall without a single response.
Lunardi’s plays an important role in promoting animal-friendly
business practices. In order to advance the company’s commitment
to excellence, EBAA is asking Lunardi’s to stop supporting this
abusive industry practice.
On Friday, October 27th, join East Bay Animal Advocates for our
campaign launch with a National Call-In to Lunardi’s. Between the
hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. PST, call (650) 588-7507 and urge the
company to adopt a cage-free egg policy.
