APPENDIX 1: MEMBER STATE REPORTSproportion of their eggs enter the food service sector. Second quality eggs are sent to processors inshell form.Sweden is the only Member State where egg washing takes place and Swedish research shows thatthe incidence of bacterial contamination on the egg shell can be almost eliminated through thecombination of washing and the use of UV light. The Swedish industry considers one of the mainchallenges to be the distance over which eggs must be transported and the requirement that eggs canonly be stored for 21 days. The Swedish cold chain starts with the producer where eggs are storedat or below 12 0 C and with this system in place it is felt that a longer storage period would bepossible. The contention is that eggs stored for as long as 48 days at this temperature will remain inbetter condition than eggs stored for 21 days at the sort of temperatures experienced in moresoutherly parts of the EU.A1.14.2.1. Main producers/packersThe largest Swedish packer is Svenska Lantägg AB who account for around a quarter of total eggspacked. The Star Group (five companies working together) is not far behind.

APPENDIX 1: MEMBER STATE REPORTSBox A1. 26: Profile of Väst Farm ABVäst Farm AB is one of the largest farm-packers in Sweden with a market share of just over 1%.In addition to packing, this company also rears pullets and operates a barn production system ofjust under 20,000 laying hensOwnership: Limited companyTurnover: SEK 18 million, €1.96 million, in 2003Profit: not availableEmployment: 20 employees in total, some of whom are part-time yielding around 11 full-timeequivalents, 4.5 of whom work in the packing operationMain markets: domestic local retail sectorA1.14.2.2. Production (packer) concentrationThe Swedish packing industry is made up of 150 registered packers, of which just 25 account for 75%of all eggs packed. The largest of these, Svenska Lantägg AB, accounts for about a third of these, aquarter of the total. The Star Group (consisting of five packers) has a slightly smaller market shareand they are followed by Lokal Packers (consisting of five packers) and the co-operative Kronägg andas number five Skånesjuan. Between them these five account for 70% of total eggs packed in Sweden.The industry did not release market shares for the top companies Table A1. 119.Table A1. 119: Main egg packers in SwedenRank Company Output 20031 Svenska Lantägg AB Not available2 Star Group Not available3 Lokal Packers Not available4 Kronägg Not available5 Skånesjuan Not availableTotal production1.476 billion eggsA1.14.2.3. Main production systemsThe latest date at which figures are available by production system is 16 December 2003(www.eurobusiness.se/eggsweden). At this point, 44.5% of laying hens in Sweden were kept in cages.Of this, 64% (28.5% of total laying hens) were in enriched cages with the remainder (16% of thetotal) in traditional cages. Of those in traditional cages, just 4% had received permission to remain inthis system until January 2004. The majority are engaged in a legal battle with the Swedishgovernment over the right to use traditional cages until 2012. Around half (49.5%) of Swedish layinghens were in barn systems in December 2003 and 6% were kept according to organic standards.The industry expects that the proportion of laying hens in enriched cages has now increased at theexpense of those in barn systems as more producers have completed investment programmes.National Swedish legislation is more restrictive than that mandated by the EU. The main differencesare as follows:299
