DineEquity announced it expects all pork vendors for its Applebee’s and IHOP restaurant chains to phase out gestation stall sow housing by 2020.

“By 2020, Applebee's and IHOP will only serve pork products that are produced without the use of gestation crates. We recognize there are challenges to meeting this goal, but as one of the world`s largest full-service restaurant companies, we are confident our suppliers will meet our expectations and work with us to achieve this objective,” according to a statement posted on the company’s website.
