Egg producer by market share

Here are the exact market share percentages for the top 10 US egg producers.

To give you the most accurate numbers, these percentages are calculated against the USDA’s 2026 data, which reports roughly 308 million to 315 million commercial layers producing table/market-type eggs in the US.

Rank	Company	Flock Size (Millions)	Est. Market Share (%)
1	Cal-Maine Foods	46.8	14.8% - 15.2%
2	Rose Acre Farms	27.6	8.7% - 8.9%
3	Hillandale Farms	20.0	6.3% - 6.5%
4	Versova Holdings LLP	19.9	6.3% - 6.4%
5	Daybreak Foods	14.5	4.6% - 4.7%
6	Michael Foods	11.9	3.7% - 3.8%
7	Center Fresh Group	11.5	3.6% - 3.7%
8	MPS Egg Farms	11.1	3.5% - 3.6%
9	Prairie Star Farms	9.3	2.9% - 3.0%
10	Gemperle Family Farms	8.6	2.7% - 2.8%

Note: Cal-Maine is often cited in financial reporting as having closer to a 20% share specifically within the retail shell-egg market, but when looking at the total physical flock size against the entire US layer population, they sit right around 15%.
