ABOUT US

Eating meat?
Yes, 
while respecting Animals and Humans.

We are convinced of the good will of the breeders and the consumers,
the need for transparency
and the urgency of a global action (no more niches).

Billions of livestock animals worldwide, bred, transported, slaughtered every year for human consumption purposes 
must benefit from proper and safe living conditions.
No matter how short their existence for they are sentient beings.
Our livestock animals have emotions, needs; they have consciousness just as we do.

Breeding, transporting, slaughtering without harming is the aim we share with 
the majority of French and European livestock farmers and consumers.

How ?

HumAni Vie offers guarantee of regular checks on each certified farm. It changes the situation.

HumAni Vie is European because abuse / neglect and suffering have no borders.

HumAni Vie adopts a small steps methodologyso as to bringsustainable solutionsto as many farms as possible to reach a higher number of animals.

Strategy

HumAni Vie, a fine designed label which bring value.Meat sold a little bit higher so as to allow fair income to livestock farmers(French and European consumers say yes to a meat a little more expensive as long as animal welfare is guaranteed and controlled).

We encourage tripartite contracts(Breeder/Cooperative; Slaughter- Processing Company/ Distributor) because Farmers are the onestaking care of Animals;Farmers are the ones investing in infrastructures/tools serving their Animals well-being; Farmers are the onesassuring us good productsby the quality of their work.

HumAni Vie, European animal welfare certification mark, created in 2017 by Canis Ethica, 
the French association for animal protection, after finding that:

Sustainable process

Consumers are unable to use their ethical power to choose meat products from well-treated livestock animals because information is not available in a transparent and comprehensive way on labels.

Yet, given supply and demand law if we want to initiate a sustainable process of good animal treatment within farms regardless of their size, providing consumers with simple, transparent and controlled information becomes key.

Infrastructure investment

Farmers are reluctant to engage in heavy restructuring of their farms in the name of animal welfare since they have no guarantee of future income.

Infrastructure investments are expensive, depreciations are long and capital is scarce.

We want an upgraded life quality for livestock animals thus we strive to ensure positive financial gains to farmers.

Number reality

Niches are created (antibiotic free, castration free, GMO free, X free, Y free, Z free, XY free but Z included, etc.) and they all offer better life conditions to a very small number of livestock animals.

This is to forget number reality: the meat industry it is billions of animals bred and transported and slaughtered every year.

We work to ensure that a maximum number of animals can benefit from our specifications, which cover all variables (Health, Building, Transport, ...).

Laws exist.

Government is responsible for controlling about 1% of all farms in the country each year.


Consumers, with proper tool (informed choice through HumAni Vie label) will make responsible choices therefore multiply certification positive effects on farms.
