egg products overview
What are egg products?
Eggs are available in many different formats, including liquid, frozen and dried forms. Ready-made products such as boiled eggs, scotch eggs, mayonnaise, scrambled eggs and sandwich fillings are also part of the product range.
Egg products are used by food manufacturers, bakers and caterers to save time, money and hassle, without neglecting quality or food safety responsibilities.
Due to the economies of scale and levels of demand that apply, egg products are not normally available direct to consumers although some larger retailers now stock a small range. For larger quantities, contact your local Cash and Carry.
What is the egg products market worth?
Sales of egg products have grown steadily over the last decade and the UK egg products market is now worth approximately £250m.
