New plant may spur Jamaican egg exports
A new egg liquefying plant in Jamaica could lead to the start of an egg product export market.
'A new industry has been born, Jamaica Egg Farmers Association President Mark Campbell told the Jamaica Observer. 'Once we fulfill our demand locally, we will be able to move into the Caribbean in the shortest order.'
The new plant is a joint venture between the egg producers association and Caribbean Producers Jamaica. The plant is expected to produce 2,000 cases of liquid eggs a month by November.
Liquid eggs are sold to Jamaican and restaurants. But the new plant is expected to be able to meet local demand and create product of customers in other nations as well
