Produces and distributes conventional and specialty shell eggs nationwide while adding egg products and prepared breakfast foods. Revenue comes mainly from U.S. retail and foodservice customers, with results shaped by egg and feed prices, flock health, and specialty-egg demand.
Produces, grades, packages, markets, and distributes conventional and specialty shell eggs to retail and foodservice customers nationwide. Specialty offerings span cage-free, nutritionally enhanced, organic, brown, pasture-raised, and free-range eggs.
Extends beyond shell eggs through egg products, hard-cooked eggs, and prepared foods such as egg patties, omelets, scrambled egg formats, pancakes, waffles, and wraps. Operations are now managed through three reportable segments: Conventional Shell Eggs, Specialty Shell Eggs, and Prepared Foods.
Runs a vertically integrated production and distribution network positioned near customers and has broadened the portfolio through acquisitions and capacity investments. Revenue is primarily U.S.-based, while results remain tied to shell-egg and feed-grain prices, flock health and biosecurity, and demand for cage-free and other specialty eggs.
