The eggs you buy in your neighbourhood supermarket or corner grocery store come from one of nearly 170 registered egg and pullet farmers in Manitoba. Some run independent family-operated businesses and others have chosen to join together in larger operations. Egg farmers contribute to the communities they live and work in, while egg production contributes more than $85 million a year to the provincial economy.
Farmers are committed to providing a wholesome, quality product to consumers at a fair price. Eggs are handled carefully at the farm, refrigerated and transported quickly to the grading station. Eggs travel from the farm to the grading station and then to the grocer's cooler, all within a week. That leaves plenty of time to enjoy the fresh flavour of eggs well before the 'Best Before' date.
The success of the egg business depends on cooperation and partnerships among farmers, their suppliers, graders and further processors. |
