Company Summary: Many Roads Purveyors are egg dealers providing a service to farmers by facilitating the supply chain. We buy eggs from farmers, take them to be graded, and sell them at markets. Our farmers have fewer than 100 laying hens, which is the limit without expensive quotas. Consequently, we work with multiple farmers and sell their eggs together under a single brand.
