APPENDIX 1: MEMBER STATE REPORTSIn Spain there are around 700 packaging and grading stations, almost all of which are attached toproducing holdings. This means that around 70% of the Spanish egg holdings have their own stationsand market their own eggs. The remaining 30% deliver their eggs to stations owned in general bygroups of producers. Vertical integration in the egg production in Spain is therefore not common.After sorting, grading and packaging the eggs are sold mainly to the retail market. There is nostatistical data on the egg destination, although industry sources indicated that one of the producingcompanies sells its eggs to retail (68%) and the processing industry (30%), the remaining 2% beingeggs sold directly to local populations, employees, etc. Only a very small quantity of eggs are solddirectly by producers.For the sector as a whole in 2003, according to INPROVO, 85% of the eggs marketed in the countrywent directly to human consumption, the remaining 15% going to the processing industry.Total human consumption of fresh eggs is divided as follows:households (76%, with a per capita of 161 eggs); and,hotels, restaurants and institutions (24%, with a per capita of 50 eggs).According to MAPA figures, per capita direct consumption in households has been decreasingsteadily since 1987, when it was 259 eggs/person. In 2001 the figure was just 162 eggs/person, adecrease of 37.5%.A1.13.2.1.
