Amazon, Target, Kroger shoppers to get part of $22.5m after raw chicken settlement – you only need a receipt – The US Sun

AMAZON, Target, and Kroger shoppers may be eligible for part of a $22.5 million raw chicken settlement.

The payout applies to those who bought fresh or frozen raw chicken from Tyson Foods, Pilgrim’s Pride, or Foster Farms between 2009 and 2019.

The $22.5 million class action settlement claims these companies conspired to raise chicken prices, costing consumers more at the checkout.

The new settlement expands an already massive $181 million fund, bringing the total available to consumers to $203.5 million.

The lawsuit covers purchases made in 25 states and the District of Columbia.

Eligible buyers include anyone who bought fresh or frozen raw chicken, not including deli or pre-cooked chicken, in places like California, Florida, Illinois, New York, and North California between January 1, 2009, and July 31, 2019.

The class action lawsuit accuses some of the biggest names in the poultry industry, including Tyson Foods, Pilgrim’s Pride, and Foster Farms, of working together to artificially raise chicken prices.

Chicken products tied to the settlement are widely sold at major retailers.

Tyson Foods products are available at Kroger, Target, and Amazon, while Pilgrim’s Pride is also found at Kroger and on Amazon.

George’s chicken is commonly stocked at Sam’s Club.

Although Peco Foods, Fieldale Farms, and Mar-Jac Poultry mainly serve bulk and foodservice markets, their products can still be found at select retailers and via delivery services like Instacart.

The alleged scheme forced millions of American consumers to overpay for one of the most common items in the grocery store.

Although none of the companies involved have admitted wrongdoing, several have agreed to settle in order to resolve the claims.

The latest additions to the settlement include Harrison Poultry, which will pay $2.9 million: House of Raeford at $4.5 million; Koch Foods at $5 million; Mountaire Farms at $3 million’ Simmons Foods at $3 million; O.K Foods at $3.2 million; and Sanderson Farms at $750,000.

Consumers who are eligible to take part in the settlement could receive a cash payment.

The exact amount will depend on how much chicken they purchased and whether they have prrof, such as receipts or purchase records.

Those who can show evidence of their evidence purchases may receive a larger share of the settlement.

However, claims can still be submitted without receipts, and payments will be made on a pro rata basis, meaning funds are divided based on how much each person qualifies to receive.

To benefit from the settlement, consumers must file a claim form by July 31, 2025.

If they object to the settlement or wish to exclude themselves, the deadline for doing so is May 12, 2025.

A final approval hearing is scheduled for June 30, 2025, in the US District Court for the Northern District of Illinois.

People who already filed a valid claim before the $22.5 million was added do not need to file again.

However, they may update their existing claim by contacting the settlement administrator.

The Sun has reached out to Amazon, Target, and Kroger for comment.
