Family-owned since 1967, Daybreak Foods raises hens and processes eggs—much of them into liquid egg—for commercial food customers from its headquarters in Lake Mills, Wisconsin and farms across the Midwest. The Rehm family has grown the company from its founder’s poultry-equipment business into an operation with more than 24 million laying hens and over 1,200 employees. Daybreak pairs that scale with dedicated animal-welfare staff, a veterinarian, and sustainability practices such as reclaiming processing water and reusing egg shells.
