Executive Order 14364, titled Addressing Security Risks from Price Fixing and Anti-Competitive Behavior in the Food Supply Chain, is an executive order signed by U.S. President Donald Trump on December 6, 2025.[1] The order directs federal authorities to investigate anti-competitive practices within the United States food supply chain and assess potential national security risks associated with such conduct.[1][2]

Background

In November 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice launched an investigation into major meatpacking companies over potential collusion to increase beef prices.[3] The order was issued amid concerns about the impact of anti-competitive behaviour on food prices and supply stability in the United States.[1][4] It was announced alongside a federal probe into alleged price fixing and price manipulation in the meatpacking sector.[5] The order established task forces within the Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission to investigate anti-competitive practices in food-related industries and consider enforcement or regulatory action where appropriate.[6][7] The measures extended federal scrutiny beyond meatpacking companies to the broader food supply chain, including processors and retailers.[8] In commentary, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins stated that anti-competitive behaviour, including price fixing by foreign-controlled corporations, has affected the fairness of the agricultural system and the affordability of the U.S. food supply.[9]
