R.W. Sauder, Inc., known as Sauder’s Eggs, wholesales and processes eggs sourced through a network of more than 50 family-run farms. Begun by Frank Sauder as a Lancaster County door-to-door delivery business in the 1930s, the family-owned company now operates four grading and processing facilities in two states, employs close to 400 people and sells about 1.4 billion eggs annually. Its farm-code system lets shoppers trace a carton back to the family farm that produced it, while a company-owned refrigerated fleet carries eggs from processing facilities to retailers.
