Mighty Earth issues notice of litigation against French supermarket chain Casino Groupe
Casino is being challenged under France’s new groundbreaking Duty of Vigilance Law Article L. 225-102-4.-I and II of the Commercial Code, for its purchasing of beef from JBS, a Brazilian company associated with widespread deforestation, environmental damage, cattle laundering, illegal land grabbing and human rights abuses.
It’s hoped that Casino a reputable market leader will use its buying power and dominant position to become a lever of change and help JBS the worlds largest supplier of beef to change its ways.
