Fusion Hotel Group Commits to Using Only Cage-Free Eggs

The Fusion Hotel Group in Vietnam has partnered with Humane Society International (HSI), a global organization working to protect animals.

The objective for Fusion is to improve animal welfare in its supply chain by committing to sourcing 100 percent cage-free eggs, both shell and liquid forms, in all existing and future hotels in Vietnam, and elsewhere.

All of Fusion’s operations running throughout Vietnam in Da Nang, Cam Ranh, Ho Chi Minh (Saigon), Hue, Phu Quoc, Quy Nhon and Vung Tau will start implementing the use of cage-free eggs by 2021 and commit to 100 percent by 2025.

Phuong Tham, HSI Vietnam Country Director, said, “We are delighted with the commitment of Fusion towards a cage-free egg policy to help lead the way among hospitality companies to a higher standard of corporate-social responsibility for animal welfare in the country.”

Fusion’s efforts to commit support animal welfare can already be seen at the group's hotels in Hue and Cam Ranh, as both properties utilize eggs from their very own farms.

Battery cage systems are infamous world-wide for confining hens in tiny spaces, often no bigger than an A4-sized sheet of paper, therefore, denied the ability to move freely.

Samir Wildemann - Fusion’s Vice President, Operations, said, “We are proud of our commitment to corporate social responsibility and responsible consumption, which includes animal welfare in our supply chain. There is a growing demand for higher welfare and quality products and cage-free eggs are a key example of humane and sustainable ingredients.”

Fusion Hotel Group joins leading multinational companies in the hospitality industry, such as IHG and Four Seasons, that have made similar commitments to source only cage-free eggs.
