Argument for the unique swedish egg:

With eggs at home you have always food at home - omelette, pancakes, waffles ...

Eggs is nutricious and light food that contains vitamins and minerals.

For consumers with different wishes and demands there is a broad specta of different kinds of eggs.

Swedish eggs are safe. To be able to eat softboiled eggs or lick the bowl is something we take for granted in Sweden but not nececerraly in the rest of the world. Swedish eggs has a rare salmonellafree "warranty".

The Swedish animalrights law is the most goaloriented and fourthgoing in the world.

Swedish eggs own careprogram completes the law and document the animal care, hygien and  anti contamination.

The food to the 5 million chickens in Sweden are based mostly on cerials grown in Sweden. This contributes to an open landscape. 

The food to our swedish chickens are also without antibiotics, hormones and synthetic colors. We have also chosen to not have GMO int their food.

The swedish eggproduction gives a lot of importent jobs.
