Why US Eggs?
GeneralWhy do you sell eggs from the USA?
On rare occasions when the available supply of eggs cannot meet the demand from our customers (Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas for example) we do import eggs from the United States to ensure our customers and consumers continue to have access to fresh, Grade A eggs.
As in other industries such as dairy and poultry, to be compliant with current international trade agreements such as CUSMA/USMCA/T-MEC, we are
required
to import a percentage of eggs sold in the Canadian market. It is also important to note that we only purchase eggs from American farms or grading stations that meet Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) regulations in order to export eggs into Canada. When eggs are imported from the United States, it is clearly labeled on the packaging.
