HOW THE SURVEY
WAS MADE
In the fourth edition of the Cage-Free Tracker for Latin America, Sinergia Animal conducted a survey to gather information on the progress of 115 companies across Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador in transitioning to sourcing cage-free eggs on a national level. For companies that have global policies, we asked them to report numbers specifically in Latin America.
The methods used to collect the companies' progress included our own tailored questionnaire, the WelfareProgress platform, and verifying public information on companies websites and reports. This process took six months to complete, during which Sinergia Animal contacted all 115 companies in question, collaborating with other NGO's and sharing reports where possible.
