Where did it all begin?The Bird Brothersback story
It’s the mid 1960s and the UK egg industry is in its infancy...
Our entrepreneurial founders Carl and Peter Bird see great business potential and hatch a plan.
The twin brothers buy a small, derelict farmhouse in Bedfordshire and build their first henhouse.
1960’s
As business expands, the brothers realise a happy hen delivers a tasty egg. This simple founding principle still drives us today.
In the beginning
the hens shared
the farm with a
selection of
non-feathered
tenants!
Today…
Our founders’ sons, Matthew and Stuart, are evolving Bird Brothers alongside a dedicated team.
Each week we supply up to 5 million fresh eggs to a wide range of customers.
Some of them have worked with us for decades.
