Izolo, iReuters ishicilele udaba oluchaza kabanzi ngokuqiniswa komkhankaso oholwa yi-Animal Equality, osekuphele unyaka inxusa ukuthi kuqedwe ukusetshenziswa kwala makhreyithi. Lo mkhankaso ufinyelele umvuthwandaba ngomhlangano obalulekile wabanikazi bamasheya ngoMeyi 15, lapho kuzovotelwa khona isiphakamiso esifakwe yi-Humane Society of the United States (HSUS).

Njengoba kusondela ivoti labanikazi bamasheya, ingcindezi kuDenny iyaqhubeka nokukhula.
Abameli baphikisa ngokuthi ukusetshenziswa kwamakhreyithi okukhulelwa kubangela izingulube ezikhulelwe ekuvalelweni ngokweqile, kufanise izimo zazo nokuvaleleka esihlalweni sendiza ngaphandle kokukwazi ukuhamba ngokukhululeka noma ukuzibandakanya ekuziphatheni kwemvelo. Umphumela waleli voti ungase uphawule inguquko ebalulekile ekulweleni izinqubo ezingcono zenhlalakahle yezilwane embonini yezokudla, lapho uDenny engumsuka walolu daba olubucayi. Entuthukweni yakamuva, i-Denny's, i-American diner chain eyaziwa kakhulu, izithola isiphakathi kwenkulumompikiswano eshisayo mayelana nezinqubo zezenhlalakahle yezilwane, ikakhulukazi ukusetshenziswa kwamakhreyithi ezingulube ezikhulelwe. Le mpikiswano ilethwe phambili ngumzamo wokubambisana phakathi kwe-Animal Equality, inhlangano evelele yamalungelo ezilwane, kanye ne-Reuters, isikhungo sezindaba somhlaba wonke.

Izolo, Reuters ishicilele indatshana echaza ngomkhankaso oqinisayo oholwa UkuLingana kwezilwane, osekuphele isikhathi esingaphezu konyaka ikhuthaza ukuthi kuqedwe ukusetshenziswa kwala makhreyithi. Lo mkhankaso ufinyelele umvuthwandaba ngomhlangano wabanikazimasheya obalulekile ozayo ngoMeyi 15, lapho kuzovotelwa khona isiphakamiso esithunyelwe yi-Humane Society of the United States (HSUS). Lesi siphakamiso, sisekelwa inkampani enethonya yomeluleki wommeleli, inkampani ye-Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS), icela ku-Denny's ukuthi abeke okuhlosiwe okucacile nezikhathi zokuqeda amakhreyithi okukhulelwa, okugqamisa ukuntula kwenhlangano kwenqubekelaphambili yomphakathi nakuba ukuzibophezela okwenziwa eminyakeni eyishumi edlule.
Njengoba ivoti labanikazi bamasheya lisondela, ingcindezi kuDenny iyaqhubeka nokukhula. Abameli baphikisa ngokuthi ukusetshenziswa kwamakhreyithi okukhulelwa kwezingulube ezikhulelwe nokuvalelwa ejele okwedlulele, kufanisa izimo zabo nokubambeka esihlalweni sendiza ngaphandle ikhono lokuhamba ngokukhululeka noma ukuzibandakanya ekuziphatheni kwemvelo. Umphumela waleli voti ungase uphawule inguquko ebalulekile ekulweleni izinqubo zenhlalakahle yezilwane ezingcono embonini yezokudla, lapho uDenny engumsuka walolu daba olubucayi.
Ngokubambisana ne-Animal Equality, inkampani yezindaba yomhlaba wonke i-Reuters ikhiphe indatshana egqamisa ukwanda kwengcindezi ku-Denny's yokuqeda amakhreyithi ezingulube ezikhulelwe.
Izolo, kulandela ukusebenzisana ne-Animal Equality, imithombo yezindaba yomhlaba wonke i-Reuters ibike ngengcindezi eyandayo etholwa uDenny yokuqeda ukusetshenziswa kwamakhreyithi ezingulube ezikhulelwe. Le nhlangano njengamanje ibhekene nomkhankaso okhulayo kazwelonke we-Animal Equality kanye nomhlangano wabatshalizimali ozayo ngoMeyi 15 ukuze kuvotelwe abaninimasheya ngalolu daba.
Isiphakamiso seHumane Society of the United States (HSUS), umninimasheya kwaDenny, sithunyelwe ngaphambi komhlangano. Lesi siphakamiso saqinisekisa umsebenzi wabameli osekuphele unyaka befuna ukuthi le nhlangano iqede ukusetshenziswa kwamakhreyithi njengoba le nhlangano yathembisa ukwenza eminyakeni eyishumi edlule. Njengoba kuvezwe isiphakamiso kanye nomkhankaso we-Animal Equality, i-Denny's yehlulekile ukwenza “inqubekelaphambili ephusile” naphezu kwalesi sithembiso somphakathi.
Manje, uDenny ubhekene nevoti labanikazi bamasheya elingagcina liphushe inkampani ukuthi izibekele imigomo kanye nezikhathi zokunciphisa noma zokuqeda ukusetshenziswa kwamakhreyithi ochungechungeni lwayo lokuhlinzeka. I-Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS)—“ifemu yomeluleki yababambeli abanethonya”—isisekele isiphakamiso se-HSUS. Ngemva kokuhlaziya izinqubomgomo zayo, i-ISS imake indlela u-Denny alungisa ngayo ulimi lwayo ukuze “yenze buthaka kakhulu ukubonakala kwayo” ngokuphathelene nokuzibophezela kwayo mayelana nenkinga.
Sihlale sinethemba lokuthi umkhankaso onamandla we-Animal Equality kanye nevoti labanikazi bamasheya kuzoholela enqubeni ezingulubeni ezikhulelwe ezivaleleke emakhejini ngaphakathi kwe-supply chain ka-Denny. Sizoqhubeka nokukhulumela izilwane nabathengi abathintekayo ngenhlalakahle yabo kuze kube abakwaDenny benza okulungile futhi bayawuqeda lo mkhuba.
