Canada's Chicken Egg Production industry has grown over the five years to 2024, buoyed by the agricultural sector's supply management system. Since eggs are a staple for most Canadians, egg consumption has grown in line with the size of the domestic population. Demand for new specialty egg products with enriched qualities has also risen, bolstering industry demand. Consumers have increasingly purchased products perceived as being ethically raised, such as cage-free or free-range eggs, which garner a price premium for industry goods. Despite the pandemic's impact, industry performance did not change significantly, as downstream demand for eggs remained relatively unchanged. Overall, industry revenue is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.3% to $1.9 billion over the five years to 2024, including growth of 1.6% in 2024 alone. Supply chain and weather disruptions drastically affected profitability, dropping by 6.0% between 2019 and 2024. Canadian farming has become increasingly capital-intensive, and egg producers have incorporated more technology to ensure the greatest yield for their investments. This has led to an intensification of the industry, in which smaller farms are bought and merged with larger farms to achieve economies of scale. Larger farms generate more revenue and are better financially situated to afford the constant technological upgrades necessary for survival. Yet, although the number of farms has grown slowly over the past five years, Canada's unique supply management system has helped preserve some smaller operators that would have otherwise been forced out of business. Operators can expect more modest growth over the five years to 2028. Year-on-year egg sales are expected to rise steadily as the economy fully moves beyond the pandemic. Furthermore, as per capita disposable income increases, consumers will likely buy more processed and specialty egg products at home and in restaurants. Meanwhile, research has demonstrated the nutritional benefits of egg consumption, which has been a boon to chicken egg producers. Industry revenue is projected to increase an annualized 1.5% to $2.0 billion over the five years to 2029.

In the current period, the US egg industry has experienced revenue growth primarily driven by historically high egg prices, a direct consequence of recurrent HPAI outbreaks. These outbreaks have been the most disruptive force over the past five years, leading to significant flock reductions and persistent supply shortages. As millions of hens have been culled due to disease, the scarcity has caused retail egg prices to soar, with some months seeing prices more than double year-over-year. This price surge has helped offset revenue losses from flock reductions but increased input costs for some producers; the overall uneven impact has prompted an industry-wide shift towards improved biosecurity measures and contingency planning to mitigate future risks and maintain current price levels. Overall, revenue has climbed at a CAGR of 15.5% to an estimated $19.8 billion after a decrease of 4.4% in 2025. Trade dynamics and input costs are significantly challenging profit, despite rising egg prices. The US has increased imports to make up for domestic shortages, sourcing eggs from countries less affected by HPAI, like Mexico. However, new tariffs on imports and critical feed ingredients stand to raise costs for US egg producers, diminishing competitiveness abroad and driving higher domestic prices. Retaliatory tariffs, especially from Canada, and increased costs for foreign-manufactured equipment have further strained profit. While elevated egg prices have provided some revenue relief, high input costs, especially for feed, have suppressed overall profit levels across the industry. Looking ahead, the outlook for the US egg industry will be driven by steady production growth and price normalization. With the expected recovery from disease shocks and ongoing investments in capacity expansion, output is projected to rise through 2030, matching climbing per capita egg consumption. As supply stabilizes, egg prices will drop sharply from recent peaks to near pre-HPAI levels by 2026. Consequently, revenue is forecast to decline at a CAGR of 6.0% to reach $14.5 billion in 2030. Nevertheless, specialty eggs like organic and cage-free are expected to maintain stronger margins due to regulatory mandates and evolving consumer preferences. Producers are increasingly investing in operational efficiency initiatives, supported by emerging livestock-care technologies and methods and lower borrowing costs, as they prepare for a more competitive pricing environment while preserving sustainable growth.
