Fairburns Eggs
Passionate about our hens and the eggs they kindly produce, we are a young, progressive family business. Taking a very hands-on approach, we are the third generation of Fairburns to produce eggs. As a business, we have the drive to care and the technology to deliver. We are in control of everything we put in and every egg we send out, ensuring the finest quality and the freshest egg.
With 90 units across 23 farms, L J Fairburn & Son Limited may have grown into an enterprise which can now boast at being one of the largest egg producers and packers in the UK. However, one thing that hasn’t changed is the commitment to family values, business integrity, and loyalty on which the business was originally built.
L J Fairburn & Son Limited is now owned by Stuart and Judy Fairburn and is run by their son, Managing Director, Daniel Fairburn. Daniel is supported by his sisters Caroline Fairburn-Wright, Business Director and Sarah Hall, Operations Director. All passionate about the business, family values and sustainability are at the core of everything we do.
The business now has 5m laying and rearing hens – 4m are owned by Fairburn’s and 1m are contract producer owned. Rearing in excess of two million pullets every year for their own use and re-sale, the Fairburn family also mill over 80,000 tonnes of feed each year, including grain grown on their 2,000 acre arable farm.
