Established in 1926 as one of the country's first Egg cooperative, Stonegate today now thrives as an innovative and professional business with family values at it's heart. Stonegate Farmers Ltd. produces and supplies eggs and egg products. The Company collects, grades, and packages eggs and egg products. Stonegate Farmers serves retailers and food manufacturers in the United Kingdom. Stonegate has plenty of reason to look serene on its nest. The company is a major UK egg producer and a world producer of free-range and organic eggs. It oversees egg production from hatching to packing and supplies both branded and own-label eggs to big UK grocers such as ALDI, Asda, Sainsbury, and Waitrose. Beyond large white eggs, shoppers can choose Stonegate eggs based on the breed and diet of hens that laid them. The company has grown through acquisitions -- such as its purchase of egg packer and mayonnaise maker Farmhouse Freedom Eggs in 2011 -- as well as through investing in equipment and creating value-added specialty eggs. Stonegate is owned by Noble Foods.
