Cavanagh Free Range Eggs
John and Eileen Hall started producing eggs in 2002. They launched the Cavanagh Free Range Eggs brand in 2012 in response to consumer demand for a quality artisan free-range egg with provenance.
This multi-award-winning family business is based in the beautiful Lakelands of County Fermanagh. They are focused on producing the best quality free-range eggs in the industry.
With a flock of 73,000 hens in 7 separate barns across 4 sites, the hens have the freedom to roam in large fenced paddocks, which are dotted with mature oak, ash and chestnut trees. The tranquil fields around the barns are ideally suited for hens as they can forage during the day and return to the safety of their barn perches at night.
The company places an emphasis on high welfare standards. Their eggs are used by some of the top hotels and restaurants in Northern Ireland including Belfast’s 5 star Merchant Hotel. They were eaten by the world leaders who attended the G8 Summit at Lough Erne Resort in 2013.
What They Do
Produce and pack free range eggs for wholesale, retail and catering.
