Proof Required?

Several major chicken processors have agreed to pay $22.5 million to settle claims that they conspired to artificially inflate chicken prices. This settlement adds to an existing pool that now totals over $200 million for consumers who purchased raw chicken during the alleged price-fixing period. If you bought raw chicken from grocery stores or other retailers during the time period covered by this lawsuit, you may be entitled to compensation from this settlement fund. The companies allegedly worked together to reduce supply and drive up prices, causing consumers to pay more than they should have for chicken products.

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

You purchased raw chicken products during the class period (specific dates pending)
You bought chicken from grocery stores, supermarkets, or other retail locations

How Much Can You Get?

The settlement provides $22.5 million that will be distributed among eligible class members who purchased raw chicken during the relevant time period. This amount is in addition to previous settlements totaling $181 million from other chicken processors involved in similar cases.

Specific payout amounts are still being determined.
