LSG Group’s Commitment to Cage-Free Eggs: Progress and Transparency

In February 2023, LSG Group made a commitment to transition to 100% cage-free eggs across its global catering operations network by 2025. We recognize the importance of transparency and would like to share an update, as developments outside of our control have occurred since this commitment was made.  

 

Volatility of the Egg Market 

With a global avian flu epidemic impacting a significant amount of the egg supply, the ability to source cage-free eggs to meet this commitment became a challenge, both from a supply chain and cost perspective. While there have been improvements in the market, we recognize that ongoing volatility will continue to create uncertainty in the supply chain.  

 

Sale of LSG Sky Chefs and Separation from LSG 

Previously, LSG Group was a single global entity with LSG Sky Chefs as one of the many brands operating around the world. LSG Sky Chefs was sold in late 2023 and formally separated from Lufthansa Group (LSG).    

 

As a result, LSG Sky Chefs was divided into several separate and distinct regional operating companies. This was a significant transition, and it’s something we continue to work through as we essentially rebuild our respective organizations as standalone business entities. 

 

Looking Ahead 

We have been and will continue to be committed to using cage-free eggs in our menus in collaboration with our airline partners and suppliers. We remain dedicated to providing a more detailed update in the future once we’ve completed the transition. We value the feedback and collaboration from our stakeholders and activists as we continue to work towards a cage-free future.
