What is Global Animal Partnership?Founded in 2008, Global Animal Partnership (G.A.P.) is a non-profit organization made up of farmers, scientists, retailers, manufacturers, and animal advocates, all collaborating with a common purpose: improving animal welfare. G.A.P. is making a difference by creating and managing a comprehensive 5-Step Animal Welfare Rating program for farm animals, where farms & ranches are audited every 15 months by an independent third-party. Through our 5-Step Rating program and labeled product program, producers and consumers can choose to support a program that continuously improves the lives of farm animals Step by Step. To date, more than 3,200 farms, raising more than 290 million animals annually, have been audited and certified to our unique, multi-tiered 5-Step Animal Welfare Rating program.LOOK FOR THE G.A.P.
