Caring for our chickens
The welfare of our chickens is important to us. All Tegel farms are proudly SPCA Certified. This guarantees independent auditing of our farms, prioritises the well-being of our chickens and supports the promotion of positive experiences. It’s a commitment to excellence that reflects our dedication to compassionate farming practices.

Whether it’s partnering with organisations like Kindness Collective to help families in need, supporting our own people in their community efforts, or making sure quality food doesn’t go to waste, we’re committed to making a meaningful difference where it matters most.
