Leading with Legacy: Passion for eggs and innovation

From family farm to industry leader, the Lemmers family has a rich history of innovation in the egg industry. Since 1959, we’ve embraced change and invested in technology to deliver the highest quality egg products.

In 2024, the launch of LPX (Lemmers Protein Exchange) marks the next step in this journey, expanding our egg protein expertise into new markets.
