The Primera Difference

It takes fresh thinking to bring uncompromising quality, customer-centered innovation and unsurpassed service to the marketplace.

At Primera Foods, our ability to provide customers with the most customized solutions and the best-tasting egg products begins with carefully sourced eggs from local, Midwest farms, which allows us to maintain the highest standards. Additional ingredients are procured exclusively from partners who share our same commitment to quality.

Then we combine our locally sourced eggs and top-quality ingredients with our proven processing expertise and stringent quality protocols. The result is an extraordinary portfolio of versatile products with genuine egg flavor and superior functionality that perform consistently for a broad range of applications.

At Primera Foods, you’ll find our capabilities are based on a truly customized approach to innovation to meet customer operational needs…where passion, flexibility, responsiveness and integrity are the guiding principles behind everything we do.

What’s more, our national direct sales and broker sales network and technical support staff are always ready to go the extra mile to help you get exactly what you want in a timely, efficient manner. At Primera Foods, no customer or request is too big or too small. And every order is important.

It is this commitment to being the best that has made us the go-to supplier with the most comprehensive line of dry base ingredients, liquid egg products with 85-day extended shelf life, frozen prepared products, scrambled egg mixes and farm-fresh shell eggs.

Of course, when all is said and done, the proof is in the flavor. Perhaps that’s why the professional chefs at American Masters of Taste judged Primera Foods Liquid Whole Eggs “#1 Liquid Eggs in America.” It’s a farm-to-fork commitment to quality you’ll find in every product we make.
