Egg Farmers of Canada

Canadians love Canadian eggs. They come from local farmers who ensure our eggs are among the best in the world for quality and freshness. Our uniquely Canadian system of supply management makes all this possible and also supports thousands of Canadian jobs and sustains vibrant rural communities. Our farmers produce over 837 million dozen eggs annually to meet growing consumer demand. A strong industry makes it possible for our farmers to make long-term investments in on-farm efficiencies and to drive innovation through R&D. We are a national organization that represents Canada’s more than 1,200 regulated egg farmers in all ten provinces and the Northwest Territories. Created in 1972 under the federal Farm Products Agencies Act, Egg Farmers of Canada manages the supply of eggs, promotes eggs and develops standards for egg farming in Canada.
