Cargill has reached a $32.5 million settlement ($46.8 million Cdn) with turkey customers to resolve allegations that the company conspired with other companies to fix prices, according to federal court records.
If approved, this settlement will bring the total recovery for the Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs class-action lawsuit to $37.1 million ($53.3 million Cdn), following a $4.6 million settlement with Tyson Foods in 2021.
In addition to monetary relief, Cargill has agreed to provide cooperation to aid the customers in their ongoing claims against defendants who have not settled their lawsuit involvement.
