Proof Required?

Major beef producers Tyson and Cargill have agreed to pay $87.5 million to settle a class action lawsuit alleging they artificially inflated beef prices. The lawsuit claims these companies conspired to reduce beef production and fix prices, causing consumers to pay more for beef products at grocery stores. If you purchased certain beef cuts from grocery stores between August 1, 2014 and December 31, 2019, you may be eligible to receive money from this settlement. The agreement resolves claims without the companies admitting wrongdoing.

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

Purchased qualifying beef cuts from grocery stores between August 1, 2014 and December 31, 2019
Purchased beef in one of the eligible states (specific states to be determined)
Purchased beef for personal or household consumption (not commercial use)

How Much Can You Get?

The total settlement fund is $87.5 million, which will be distributed among all eligible class members who submit valid claims. The exact amount each person receives will depend on how many people file claims and how much beef they purchased during the class period. Individual payouts have not been announced yet, as the settlement details are still being finalized.
