Casino Profile and History

The Casino Group has been committed to improving the living standards of egg laying hens for several years now, earning pioneer status by making ambitious commitments as yet unrivalled in the industry. Through this commitment, the Casino Group seeks to emphasise the special attention it devotes to animal welfare. The Casino Group received the award during CIWF's Good Farm Animal Welfare Awards, which brought together major companies from France and other European countries to promote dialogue on the importance of animal welfare in the food industry. In 2013, the Casino Group banner Monoprix was the first French retailer to win a CIWF award, receiving the Good Egg Commendation for its commitment to sell exclusively free-range eggs under its private label. Monoprix was once again recognised in 2014, this time with an Honourable Mention for its commitment to improving welfare standards for dairy cows. In 2017, the Monoprix banner won yet another distinction, taking home a Good Rabbit Commendation. At the event, Monoprix also received an award for its commitment to improving the living standards of rabbits. The banner's pledge for 2022 is to sell private-label fresh rabbit meat exclusively sourced from animals raised in pastures or pens and without antibiotics from birth.
