This study presents the Egg Hub Model, a scalable agricultural business model aimed at increasing egg production, availability, and consumption in rural communities. Piloted in Malawi, the model supports smallholder farmers by providing training, access to quality inputs, and guaranteed markets for their eggs.
The results show a tripling of egg production, a 40% price reduction, and increased consumption from 2 to 9 eggs per month in target communities. The model has been replicated in Ethiopia, Peru, and Brazil, producing 40 million eggs annually and benefiting over half a million consumers.
