Earlier Report Observations

The UK dried eggs market volume stood at 11.5 тыс. т in 2018, dipped slightly to 11.2 тыс. т in 2019, then recovered to 11.7 тыс. т in 2020.

From 2021 onwards, the market entered a sustained decline, falling to 10.2 тыс. т in 2021 and further to 9.0 тыс. т by 2023. This contraction was primarily driven by severe avian influenza outbreaks that reduced egg production and increased feed costs, constraining the supply of dried eggs. Regulatory updates, including the Eggs (England) Regulations 2021 which altered marketing standard checks, introduced additional compliance adjustments from 2022.

Throughout the period, dried egg products maintained a dominant position in the processed eggs segment due to their longer shelf life and utility in bakery and food manufacturing, reflecting a shift in industrial demand despite overall market volume reduction.
