The company is the fourth Hong Kong-based hotel chain to commit to using only cage-free eggs worldwide; it joins Langham Hotels, Peninsula Hotels, and Mandarin Oriental, each of which has committed to using only cage-free eggs globally by 2025. As we move forward, we will continue to strive for ways to improve and make decisions that contribute a real and positive impact on the world,” said Juan Gimenez, Ovolo Hotel’s F&B Manager. “We applaud Ovolo Hotels’ decision to switch to purchasing only cage-free eggs, which will help to protect animal welfare and ensure food safety,” said Lily Tse, Program Manager of Lever Foundation, an NGO that worked with Ovolo on the issue. “Shifting to cage-free eggs has a minimal impact on total meal costs while ensuring high quality and sustainability. As a result, the number of leading hospitality and food companies pledging to use only cage-free eggs has grown significantly, and we applaud Ovolo Hotels for joining that group.
