In 1956, we opened our doors as Northwest Egg Sales with a small, family-owned egg grading plant in Seattle. Soon after, we added laying hens at our Cherry Lane Farms. We have since expanded into a fully integrated producer and processor of eggs and egg products. Today, headquartered in Everett, Washington, National Food Corporation operates its own feed mills, pullet farms, layer farms, processing plants and distribution centers in Washington, Oregon, Montana and South Dakota, serving markets throughout Alaska, Hawaii, the Pacific Northwest and the Midwest. By controlling every aspect of production, processing, distribution and marketing, we are able to assure that our customers receive the highest quality shell eggs and egg products, backed by effective customer service and support programs. As the Northwest's leading producer of both organic and cage-free eggs, National Food Corporation continually seeks to strive toward eco-friendly efforts. Our chickens enjoy certified organic feed while nesting in newly remodeled cage-free environments and all of our Naturally Organic eggs come from fully Certified Organic farms.
