Eggbert Eggs has a long-standing relationship with consumers, supplying
quality eggs and egg products to various retail outlets throughout
South Africa. The brand survived various ownership changes and actually
became the flagship name of a new National Egg Company formed in
1999, Eggbert Eggs (Pty) Ltd. The new egg company has also been
one of the leaders in stimulating the development of Black Economic
Empowerment inside the group in line with Government guidelines.
This lead to various activities such as the selling of two farms
to management and workers in 2004 and subsequent preferential procurement.
Eggbert’s Black Economic Empowerment Scorecard has an overall
rating of 62%.
Eggbert became the first egg company in South Africa to print a
trace code on all its eggs allowing for a full traceability system
where any egg can be traced back to the farm and date of production.
This gives both our customers and consumers total peace of mind
in the quality of our eggs.
Eggbert produce and distribute the most comprehensive product range
in South Africa including Commercial, Free Range, specialty such
as Organic and Omega Enriched plus the all new Pasteurised Shell
Eggs. This is done by applying the most modern production techniques
combined by hands on stockmanship. The latest product range namely
Pasteurised Shell Eggs to be added to the product family is a result
of intensive research with science partners such as the CSIR. This
product made Eggbert not only a leader in South Africa but also
a World Leader being the first company to be able to supply pasteurised
shell eggs to the broad retail, restaurant and catering industries.
In an era where consumers are concerned about health risks we believe
that this product will show strong growth in the years to come.
In 2001 Eggs-r-Easy (Pty) Ltd was founded and forms part of the
Eggbert Eggs Group. Eggs-r-Easy manufactures egg products for use
as ingredient in the Food and Related Industry. Our customer base
includes: Foodcorp, Nestle, Tiger Brands, Piemans, Unilever SA and
various other companies in the Food Industry. Our processing facility

All of the Eggbert Packing Stations are now HACCP approved making
it the first large egg company to have broad based HACCP approval.
This achievement is just further confirmation of the leading role
Eggbert is playing in taking food safety and consumer confidence
serious. Achieving and maintaining these high levels of Food Safety
Standards are only possible through dedicated staff and management.
