What can you do?

You might think you are insignificant - just a working woman or mom juggling work, kids and husband. You are totally wrong! You are significant - you hold the purse and you decide where to buy your groceries and what to buy. Your husband might make other significant decisions, but you are the person in the household that actually get in the car and go and buy the groceries.

You can help change this industry in 2 easy steps:

1. Buy organic free range eggs.

2. If the store do not stock these product, go to Woolworths for your eggs AND use this sample letter to send to the store manager.


This letter is a sample and you can use it as many times as you
like. This is a formal letter that you can take to your store
manager or you can email it to the different stores.

RE: Organic Free Range Eggs

I was shopping at your store (add location here) and notice that
you do not sell organic free range eggs. I would like you to source
organic free range eggs for sale.

I noticed that Woolworths adhere to the animal welfare policy and
the 5 freedoms internationally accepted as the basis for the
ethical and humane treatment of animals.

These are:

* Freedom from fear and distress
* Freedom from hunger and thirst
* Freedom from discomfort
* Freedom from pain, injury and disease
* Freedom to express normal behavior

I would like to buy organic free-range eggs laid by hens that
roam freely outdoors in the day and snuggle up in their barn at
night.

If Woolworths can sell only organic free range eggs to South
Africans, why can't you as well?

I hope that you will do your best to accommodate me in this regard
and I look forward to buying organic free range eggs from your shop
during my next visit.

Kind regards,
